2019 Suzuki Vitara 1.4L Petrol · DM19 DKN

The vehicle currently presents in a roadworthy condition, having achieved a clean pass during its most recent test in July 2025 at 70,797 miles. This indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year where multiple defects were identified. While the history shows intermittent mechanical issues, the lack of any advisories in the latest inspection suggests that the owner has addressed outstanding faults and is currently maintaining the vehicle effectively. The mileage profile is consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,100 miles per annum. Between the June 2022 test at 28,759 miles and the June 2024 test at 57,319 miles, the car covered over 28,000 miles, representing a higher usage rate of 14,000 miles per year during that specific period. This increased activity explains the rapid wear across all four tyres noted in the 2024 MOT record. A physical inspection should focus on the braking system and suspension geometry due to recurring faults. The June 2023 failure flagged a binding offside rear service brake and thin front pads, issues that often indicate caliper corrosion or uneven pad wear. Furthermore, the 2024 advisory noted all four tyres were worn on the edge, which strongly points to a misalignment issue or worn suspension bushes. A buyer should verify that the current set of tyres shows even wear and check the steering for any pull to one side to ensure previous alignment issues were properly rectified.
