2010 Suzuki SX4 1.6L Petrol · JC55 GWC

The 2010 Suzuki SX4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 July 2025 at 76,437 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 10 July 2024 at 72,728 miles that was immediately re-tested the same day at 72,731 miles and passed with no defects listed, indicating an administrative or minor pre-check issue rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 76,437 against a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,777 miles per year. The DVSA data shows 63,377 miles in July 2022, 67,944 in June 2023, 72,731 in July 2024, and 76,437 in July 2025. Annual accumulation stays between 3,800 and 4,800 miles with no gaps or sudden jumps. Such low, consistent use implies light running but also raises the prospect of long stationary periods that can encourage corrosion and perished rubber components despite the clean test sheet. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the car. The MOT record flags no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural integrity, yet standing time at this age commonly hides surface rust on sills and subframes not caught in a pass result. Examine exhaust emissions hardware and check for binding calipers from disuse. Verify service history independently given the sparse fault log. The clean MOT run suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but low mileage with no advisories offers no evidence on timing belts, fluid changes, or tyre sidewall condition. A pre-purchase inspection remains warranted.
