2014 Suzuki Alto 1.0L Petrol · CV14 HVG

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, maintaining a perfectly stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in June 2025 at 38,203 miles passed with zero defects or advisories recorded. This follows a string of clean passes dating back to 2021, indicating that the car has consistently met the minimum safety requirements without any recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,184 miles per year. Between July 2021 at 9,907 miles and June 2025 at 38,203 miles, the car covered 28,296 miles, showing a slight increase in usage between the 2023 and 2024 tests where it clocked 8,939 miles in twelve months. This low usage suggests the vehicle has undergone primarily short trips, which typically preserves the drivetrain and engine components compared to high-mileage long-run counterparts. While the MOT history shows no flagged faults, a buyer must inspect for signs of issues associated with low-mileage cars that sit stationary. Rubber components such as suspension bushes, tyre boots, and seals can perish or crack from age regardless of distance travelled. The buyer should check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use often prevents the pads from effectively clearing rust layers. Additionally, verifying the age and condition of the tyres is vital, as the tread depth does not account for rubber hardening over a decade.
