2017 Suzuki Ignis 1.2L Petrol · GD17 LLJ

This Suzuki Ignis has maintained a consistent MOT history with no defects recorded across five consecutive tests, all passing without fail. The most recent inspection on 2025-07-26 at 28,204 miles confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, though the test date is now over a year out—nearing the 12-month threshold for renewal. No advisories or major failings suggest underlying issues, but the lack of any recorded faults does not preclude hidden wear in high-stress areas like suspension bushes or brake calipers, which often fail without MOT triggers. The recorded mileage of 28,204 miles over nine years equates to roughly 3,134 miles annually, a figure significantly lower than average for a car of this age. The steady progression—20,125 miles in 2022 to 28,204 miles in 2026—indicates minimal usage, which could imply either light daily driving or prolonged periods of storage. There are no abrupt mileage jumps or gaps that would raise concern for deferred maintenance, though the low annual mileage may mask accelerated wear in components like coil springs or steering racks, which degrade regardless of distance travelled. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of suspension components, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, as these are prone to fatigue over time even with low mileage. The brakes, while not flagged in tests, warrant close examination for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Corrosion checks should focus on wheel arches, sills, and subframes, as standing water accelerates rust in these areas. Finally, verify the integrity of the exhaust system for leaks or sagging supports, as these often go unnoticed until they fail.
