2004 Suzuki Jimny 1.3L Petrol · CX04 EBJ

The sole available MOT entry shows the 2004 Suzuki Jimny failed its test on 5 November 2021 at 105,868 miles, with no defects recorded by the tester. This single failed result, now over four and a half years old relative to today's date, gives no basis to judge a maintenance trend as stable, worsening, or improving. The vehicle's current roadworthiness cannot be confirmed from this record alone and remains wholly unverified since late 2021. The odometer stood at 105,868 miles at the 2021 failure, equating to roughly 4,812 miles per year across the vehicle's 22-year life. That is low annual use for a Jimny of this age and may indicate light running or extended periods off the road. The history shows no earlier or later tests, so we cannot track accumulation or spot gaps; the sparse DVSA data ends abruptly in November 2021. A buyer must commission a fresh MOT and physical inspection before any purchase. The 2021 failure with no listed defects suggests an administrative or unrecorded fault, so the tester should scrutinise structural integrity, chassis corrosion, suspension bushes, and brake discs for hidden issues. Given the long dormancy since the last test, check for perished rubber components, seized calipers, and exhaust condition from standing. Low mileage hides nothing if the car sat unused; fluid degradation and rust take hold regardless of the clock.
