2018 Suzuki Ignis 1.2L Petrol · DF18 MKG

The vehicle presents a generally roadworthy profile with a stable maintenance trend following a specific mechanical failure. The most recent test in October 2025 at 33,349 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory for an offside rear tyre worn near the legal limit. This indicates that while consumable items are requiring attention, the core mechanical and safety-critical components have met DVSA standards over the last three annual cycles. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,169 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage patterns, such as the interval of 1,751 miles between October 2023 and October 2024, and another ,893 miles thereafter. This low annual mileage typically suggests reduced mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or brake-related issues which are not fully captured by mileage figures alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry, given the failure in September 2022 at 17,692 miles due to a suspect offside front suspension arm bush. Although this was rectified for the subsequent pass, a thorough check of the remaining bushes and ball joints is advisable to ensure no secondary wear has. The 2025 advisory regarding uneven tyre wear on the edge suggests a potential alignment issue or a worn shock absorber that should be verified to prevent premature replacement of new rubber.
