2022 Suzuki Vitara SZ5 HEV Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · CU72 MYO

The vehicle presents a stable and sound mechanical trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 27 June 2025 at 19,763 miles with zero defects. The maintenance trajectory remains entirely positive, showing no recurring faults or structural advisories. A clean bill of health at the last inspection indicates the hybrid drivetrain, braking system, and suspension components met required standards without issue. The recorded mileage of 19,763 miles over roughly four years equates to an annual average of approximately 4,941 miles, which sits well below the national norm. This low-mileage profile suggests lighter use, likely consisting of short, urban trips rather than long-distance motorway cruising. The minimal mileage increase of just two miles between the failed test on 26 June 2025 and the pass on 27 June 2025 confirms the vehicle saw almost no use during that specific period. With the current date being 8 July 2026, the car is now due for its next annual assessment, meaning any wear incurred over the last year remains unverified by official inspection. Despite the clean MOT record, the low annual mileage warrants a physical inspection of specific components prone to deterioration from prolonged standing rather than use. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the 12-volt auxiliary battery and the hybrid battery health, as infrequent driving can lead to cell degradation and starting issues. The tyre sidewalls require careful scrutiny for flat-spotting or perishing, a common issue on vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods. Brake discs should also be checked for surface corrosion, a typical affliction of low-mileage cars that can cause binding or premature wear once regular driving resumes. While the structural integrity and suspension bushes appear sound based on the tester's recent pass, verifying the condition of the exhaust system and fluid levels remains prudent before purchase.
