2018 Suzuki Ignis 1.2L Petrol · EA18 ACX

The 2026‑06‑26 MOT confirms the Suzuki Ignis remains roadworthy after the washer fluid defect was remedied, but the test also records persistent wear of the front suspension arm pins and bushes, which the inspector noted as not causing excessive movement. Mileage has risen from 22,514 miles in April 2021 to 49,025 miles in June 2026, an average increase of roughly 6,100 miles per year, matching the typical usage for an eight‑year‑old vehicle and showing no abrupt jumps or long periods of inactivity. Recurring advisories on the suspension arm pins and bushes, the cracked and perishing rear tyres, and the worn brake discs indicate that previous owners have not addressed these mechanical items, so a buyer should verify the amount of play in the suspension joints, inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracks or perishing, and examine the condition of the brake discs for pitting or scoring. The washer fluid failure suggests the pump or reservoir may be marginal, so checking washer spray pattern and fluid level is advisable, while the absence of structural rust advisories in recent tests implies the chassis remains sound, though a visual inspection for corrosion around suspension mountings is still recommended.
