2004 Suzuki Grand Vitara 1.6L Petrol · CW04 GGK

The Suzuki Grand Vitara presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 13 June 2025 at 52,156 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The prior failure on 16 May 2025 at 52,012 miles listed no defects, indicating an administrative or unrecorded non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-driven test outcome. No advisories or component wear flags appear in any of the five tests from 2022 to 2025. The odometer shows 52,156 miles against a 2004 build, averaging roughly 2,371 miles per year. Annual accumulation stayed low and consistent: 42,942 miles on 29 April 2022, 43,701 on 30 May 2023, 46,885 on 24 May 2024, then 52,012 by 16 May 2025. The 144-mile jump between the May 2025 fail and June 2025 pass confirms the vehicle sat lightly used. Sparse clean records give no evidence of deferred consumable replacement or structural neglect. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's 22-year age and likely prolonged static periods. Standing time promotes corrosion on subframes and brake calipers even when MOT results stay clear. Examine exhaust emissions hardware and underbody structural integrity for rust before purchase. The absent advisory history offers reassurance, but low mileage over two decades can mask perished rubber components and seized linkages. Verify service receipts and confirm the May 2025 failure cause with the test station, as DVSA data shows no defect line for that entry.
