2003 Suzuki Ignis 1.3L Petrol · CV53 PFF

The Suzuki Ignis presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test on 2 April 2026 at 104,862 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, with the three most recent annual tests concluding in passes and no advisories logged. Prior to that, the vehicle failed on both 9 April 2024 and 25 March 2025 at 100,373 and 102,483 miles respectively, yet the records show no defects cited on either failure, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. The odometer shows 104,862 miles against a 23-year lifespan, equating to roughly 4,559 miles per year. This is low for the age and implies light use or extended periods off the road. Mileage advanced only 2,489 miles between April 2024 and March 2025, then 2,379 miles to April 2026. The sparse, clean record across all tests gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or neglected consumable replacement intervals. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points, as a 2003 vehicle with low use may have stood in damp conditions promoting rust unseen by the annual test. The tester flagged no worn suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding brake calipers in any entry, but standing vehicles commonly develop seized handbrake mechanisms and flat-spotted tyres that a single test day will not reveal. Given the absence of recorded advisories on brakes, exhaust emissions, or drivetrain, the history suggests previous owners kept basic statutory compliance but the dual failures without defects warrant confirmation the V5C and test certificates match. Verify the actual condition of tyres, wiper blades, and underbody before purchase.
