2002 Suzuki Wagon-R+ 1.3L Petrol · EY02 VLW

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile according to the DVSA records. The most recent MOT test on 23 March 2026 at 51,095 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a sequence of consecutive passes dating back to at least February 2022, suggesting a steady approach to regulatory compliance and a lack of recurring mechanical failures or structural corrosion issues during the documented period. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle of this age. Averaging approximately 2,129 miles per year, the car has covered only 51,095 miles over its lifespan. The data shows a very gradual increase in mileage, moving from 42,703 miles in February 2022 to 51,095 miles in March 2026. This pattern indicates light, intermittent use rather than heavy commuting, which often results in less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage counterparts. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, the low annual mileage and long periods of potential inactivity require a physical inspection of age-related degradation. A buyer should specifically examine rubber components such as suspension bushes, drive belts, and tyre sidewalls for signs of cracking or perishing. Low-use vehicles often suffer from dried-out seals and perished hoses that an MOT tester might not flag unless a leak is actively present. The absence of advisories regarding brake discs or binding calipers is encouraging. However, given the low mileage, it is prudent to check for surface corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system, as vehicles that sit for extended periods are susceptible to moisture retention. Inspecting the battery health and fluid condition is also recommended to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from stagnation during its periods of low usage.
