2018 Suzuki SX4 1.0L Petrol · CV18 OMU

The Suzuki SX4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 6 August 2025 at 42,125 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across every examination in the available history. The recorded mileage shows light use for an eight-year-old vehicle. From the 28 April 2022 test at 36,176 miles, the car covered just 5,949 miles to the 6 August 2025 test at 42,125 miles, an average of roughly 1,980 miles per year. The longest gap between tests was the six-month interval from April 2022 to the 18 October 2022 test at 36,771 miles, after which annual testing resumed each August. No rapid accumulation or missed cycles appear in the data, and the DVSA record contains no advisories or failures at any point. Given the absence of flagged defects, the history implies the previous keeper maintained basic statutory standards and avoided neglect of consumables or structural items. Low annual mileage combined with standing periods can still allow corrosion to develop on underbody components and suspension bushes without triggering an MOT fault. A buyer should physically inspect brake discs for surface pitting from disuse, check coil springs and subframe mounts for rust, and confirm tyre sidewalls have not perished from age rather than wear. The clean test lineage offers reasonable assurance of structural integrity and mechanical condition at the dates recorded. An independent inspection remains prudent to verify components the MOT does not deeply assess, particularly given the car's low usage profile since 2022.
