2016 Suzuki Unknown 1.8L Petrol · FJ16 AHK

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 15 May 2026 at 15,338 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has remained in good condition across multiple tests without mechanical or structural components showing signs of failure or degradation during the recorded testing periods. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,534 miles per year. There is a significant gap between the February 2019 test at 12,170 miles and the May 2023 test at 14,502 miles, during which the car covered only 232 miles over four years. Since 2023, usage has increased slightly, covering roughly 836 miles in the last three years. This pattern suggests very short-distance use or long periods of stationary, which often presents specific mechanical risks not captured by an MOT test. While the MOT record is flawless, a physical inspection must address concerns associated with long-term sitting. A buyer should check for flat-spotted tyres, perished rubber components such as suspension bushes or wiper blades, and fluid degradation from lack of use. Low mileage often leads to seized brake calipers or corroded discs, so the braking system must be tested for free movement and surface rust. The engine should be inspected for oil leaks and to ensure the vehicle has been regularly brought up to operating temperature.
