2020 Suzuki Ignis SZ-T Dualjet Shvs 1.2L Hybrid electric (clean) · DV20 DYA

The Suzuki Ignis presents a stable and generally sound mechanical picture, with a clean bill of health at its most recent MOT on 16 March 2026 at 32,107 miles. That test passed, but the tester flagged three tyres worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, indicating the vehicle is currently running on rubber that requires imminent replacement. The maintenance trend is stable overall, though the recurrence of tyre wear advisories suggests consumable upkeep has been reactive rather than proactive. The mileage accumulation of roughly 5,351 miles per year is low for a six-year-old vehicle, pointing to short urban trips or extended periods of inactivity. The record shows a steady climb from 14,017 miles in March 2023 to 20,033 miles in March 2024, then to 26,622 miles in March 2025, and finally to 32,107 miles in March 2026. This pattern indicates consistent, incremental use without sudden spikes or suspicious gaps, and the annual tests have been completed reliably each spring. The recurring theme across the MOT history is tyre wear, flagged in both the March 2023 test at 14,017 miles and again in the March 2026 test at 32,107 miles. Both front and rear tyres have worn unevenly on their edges, a pattern often linked to underinflation, aggressive cornering, or worn suspension geometry such as tracking misalignment or deteriorated suspension bushes. A buyer should inspect the tyre pressures and sidewall condition, then have the wheel alignment and suspension components checked before committing. Beyond tyres, the absence of any mechanical or structural advisories across four consecutive clean passes is encouraging. The braking system, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity have all remained within acceptable limits throughout the vehicle's life. Still, a pre-purchase inspection should verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, the exhaust system for corrosion, and the underside for any signs of rust or damage that may not yet have reached MOT failure threshold.
