2018 Suzuki Jimny 1.3L Petrol · GL67 CDX

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-22 passed with a note regarding an insecure offside front battery and a central rear towbar obstructing the registration plate. A recurring mechanical pattern involves the towbar obstructing the registration plate, which appeared on the MOTs from 2025-05-21 and 2025-03-08. The MOT history shows a significant issue in the 2025-05-14 inspection where several items were noted, including worn brake discs on both the nearside front and offside front, worn shock absorber bushes, and a fractured offside front coil spring, alongside an imbalance in the rear brakes. The trend in the MOT history is mixed; while the most recent test passed, the previous failure highlighted several component wear items that require attention. The mileage of 35,581 miles over eight years suggests a relatively low annual mileage of approximately 4,448 miles per year, which could indicate lighter use or periods where the vehicle has been standing. A buyer should first thoroughly inspect the braking system, paying close attention to the condition of the brake discs and pads, and checking the suspension components, specifically the front lower shock absorbers and the offside front coil spring for any signs of damage or wear. Also, check the area around the towbar to ensure it is not causing any further obstruction issues.
