2002 Suzuki Carry 1.3L Petrol · FX02 XCG

The vehicle presents a generally roadworthy profile with a stable maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent test on October 27 2022 at 125,178 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met the passing standard at that time. However, because the last MOT was conducted nearly four years ago, the vehicle is significantly overdue for a test, and a current inspection is mandatory to ensure no new degradation has occurred during the extended interval between examinations. The mileage pattern is remarkably low for a 24-year-old Suzuki, averaging approximately 5,200 miles per year. There is a notable data anomaly recorded between June 2013 and June 2013, where the mileage dropped from 130,141 miles to 51,538 miles, suggesting either a recording error or an odometer replacement. Since the November 2021 test, the vehicle has covered roughly 5,000 miles per year, consistent consistent. This low annual usage often leads to age-related perish of rubber components, seals, and fluid chemistry, regardless of the low mechanical wear. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the lower bodywork. The November 2020 test flagged corrosion on the nearside and offside front integral body structures. While the tester noted structural rigidity was not significantly reduced at that time, rust on these vehicles typically progresses rapidly if untreated. The inspector should also verify the rear brake pipes, as the record shows historical corrosion in these areas dating back 2012. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for hairline cracks in suspension bushes and perished brake hoses is essential to ensure long-term safety integrity.
