2008 Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.0L Petrol · FN08 YZZ

The vehicle presents a highly roadworthy profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 24 February 2026 at 158,821 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle consistently meets the minimum safety standards without mechanical or structural failures. The absence of recorded advisories over the last five years suggests that previous owners have proactively addressed developing wear items. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per annum. There is a significant jump in usage between March 2024 at 98,056 miles and February 2025 at 156,552 miles, where the vehicle covered nearly 8,000 miles in under eleven months. Despite this period of higher activity, the vehicle maintained a clean record in both the 2025 and 2026 tests. This regularity suggests the drivetrain and suspension components have handled the increased load without triggering MOT-related failures. Given that the MOT record is immaculate, a physical inspection should focus on common wear points for this specific model and age. While the records show no structural corrosion, the buyer should inspect the chassis for surface rust, particularly around the wheel arches and suspension mounting points. The tester should also verify the condition of the rubber suspension bushes and shock absorbers, as these often degrade before reaching a point of MOT failure. The high total mileage also warrants checking for fluid leaks and the condition of the brake lines to ensure the mechanical health remains as sound as the digital history suggests.
