2009 Suzuki SX4 1.6L Petrol · FL09 NBY

This Suzuki SX4 demonstrates a stable and exceptionally clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 28 August 2025 at 155,431 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a roadworthy state without the recurring mechanical failures often seen in cars of this vintage. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 9,143 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between August 2024 and August 2025, where the odometer rose from 138,430 to 155,431 miles. This 17,000-mile jump in a single year is higher than the previous intervals, such as the 11,864 miles covered between August 2023 and August 2024, but it remains within a reasonable operational range. The lack of recorded advisories over the last four years is unusual for a 17-year-old vehicle and implies a proactive approach to maintenance. However, the absence of flagged issues in the DVSA record does not guarantee the absence of wear. A buyer should still physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, as these components naturally degrade regardless of MOT outcomes. Particular attention should be paid to the underside for structural corrosion, a common weakness for this model that may not always trigger a failure unless the integrity is compromised. Checking for brake disc pitting or binding calipers during a test drive is advised, given the high total mileage. While the records are clean, the high mileage suggests that drivetrain consumables and engine mounts should be checked for excessive play.
