2022 Suzuki SX4 S-Cross Motion B-JET Mhev 1.4L Hybrid electric · FD22 BFZ

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 16 July 2026. While there was an initial failure on the same day, this was due to a minor deficiency regarding insufficient windscreen washer liquid delivery, which is a simple rectification and not indicative of mechanical neglect or systemic failure. Given the clean pass in June 2025 and the absence of any structural or mechanical defects across the recorded history, the maintenance trend appears stable and the vehicle presents as well-maintained from a regulatory standpoint. With a recorded mileage of 37,678 miles over approximately four years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 9,420 miles per annum. This usage rate is consistent with typical UK driving patterns and suggests a balanced duty cycle. This level of mileage is low enough to avoid premature wear on major drivetrain components but high enough to ensure the engine and mild-hybrid system have been regularly exercised, which reduces the risk of carbon build-up or battery stagnation often associated with prolonged standing. Since the MOT history is remarkably clean with no recorded advisories, the buyer should focus on age-related wear and the verification of the service record. It is essential to confirm that oil changes and filter replacements have been performed at the manufacturer's recommended intervals, as calendar-based fluid degradation occurs regardless of the mileage covered. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the tyres; while the tread depth may be sufficient, inspect the sidewalls for any signs of perishing or cracking and ensure that the wear patterns are even across both axles to rule out alignment issues. During a test drive, listen for any unusual clunks or knocks from the suspension bushes or coil springs, although these are unlikely to be worn at this mileage. Inspect the brake discs for any excessive surface corrosion or evidence of binding calipers, which can occur if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. Finally, verify the health of the 12V auxiliary battery and the seamless operation of the mild-hybrid system to ensure smooth transitions between power sources. A thorough visual inspection of the underbody for any signs of corrosion will complete the mechanical evaluation.
