2022 Suzuki Vitara SZ-T Boosterjet Mhev A 1.4L Hybrid electric (clean) · GY22 AWV

A pattern of minimal intervention and tyre-related advisories defines this vehicle's recent MOT history, showing a consistent trend of passing tests with only minor consumable issues noted. The most recent test on 17 March 2026 resulted in a pass, though it flagged a nail in the nearside rear tyre edge as an advisory. This follows a similar advisory from the 12 March 2025 test regarding an offside front tyre being worn close to the legal limit. While the vehicle has avoided major mechanical failures or structural defects in its recorded history, the focus of the advisories remains strictly on tyre condition and wear. The recorded mileage of 27,566 miles over approximately four years equates to an average annual accumulation of roughly 6,892 miles. This usage profile is consistent with typical light-to-moderate driving patterns for a modern crossover. Mechanically, this level of mileage suggests that major drivetrain components and suspension assemblies should not be subject to excessive wear, though consumables such as brake pads, discs, and tyres will still require regular inspection as they reach the end of their service life. There are no significant gaps in the testing timeline to suggest long periods of inactivity or non-use. Prospective buyers should pay specific attention to the tyre condition during a physical inspection and test drive. Given the recent advisories for both edge wear and foreign objects in the tread, it is necessary to check the remaining tread depth across all four tyres and look for any uneven wear patterns that might indicate tracking or alignment issues. On the test drive, pay close attention to steering stability and listen for any rhythmic thumping or vibration that could suggest a tyre has a structural bulge or that the recent nail has caused internal damage to the carcass. Beyond the tyres, the lack of recorded advisories for suspension bushes, brake pipes, or exhaust corrosion suggests these components have remained within acceptable parameters. However, because the recent history is so focused on tyres, a thorough check of the braking system is advised to ensure no binding calipers or uneven disc wear have contributed to the reported tyre edge wear. Listen for any grinding or squealing during low-speed manoeuvres and check for any pulling to one side when applying the brakes on a level surface to ensure the vehicle's geometry is correctly set.
