2014 Suzuki SX4 1.6L Diesel · GE02 PAM

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 11 September 2025 at 100,921 miles, indicating a stable maintenance trend following the most recent inspection. While the car passed its latest test, the examiner noted uneven wear on both front inner tyres. This recurring pattern of tyre degradation, previously seen in the 2022 records, suggests a potential underlying issue with wheel alignment or suspension geometry that requires prompt investigation to prevent premature tyre replacement. Accumulating 100,921 miles over twelve years aligns with average UK usage patterns of approximately 8,400 miles per annum. The history shows consistent annual testing with no significant gaps in the record, which implies the vehicle has remained in regular operation rather than sitting idle for extended periods. Most years between 2017 and 2024 resulted in clean passes, reflecting a generally well-maintained drivetrain and chassis throughout the vehicle's mid-life. A prospective buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the front suspension components, specifically checking for play in the wheel bearings and ensuring the steering geometry is correctly set to address the recurring inner tyre wear. The 2022 failure highlighted an excessively binding offside rear brake, so verify that the callipers and handbrake mechanism operate smoothly without heat buildup. Given the vehicle's age, look closely at the underside for signs of corrosion on the subframes and brake lines, as these areas often show the first signs of structural fatigue on this model.
