2020 Suzuki Ignis SZ5 Dualjet Shvs Allgrip 1.2L Hybrid electric · KM20 XRN

The vehicle achieved a clean pass in the most recent test on 19 May 2026 at 70,349 miles, showing no recorded defects. This result marks a distinct improvement over previous years, as the car previously suffered from recurring tyre wear and brake system issues. The maintenance trend appears to be resolving, with the serious corrosion noted on nearside brake pipes in 2025 seemingly addressed prior to the latest examination. However, the history indicates a pattern of delayed maintenance on consumables that requires scrutiny. Mileage accumulation has been consistent and high, averaging approximately 11,700 miles annually. The record shows a jump of 12,283 miles between the July 2024 and May 2025 tests, followed by a further 4,473 miles by May 2026. This steady usage suggests the vehicle is a reliable daily runner rather than a garage queen, which aligns with the expected wear rates seen on the braking and tyre components throughout the log. There are no significant gaps or irregularities in the recorded mileage timeline. A prospective buyer must closely inspect the braking system and tyres. The July 2024 test flagged pitted front discs and thin pads, while the May 2025 entry specifically noted corrosion on the nearside inner and outer brake pipes covered in grease. Although the recent pass suggests these items were rectified, the presence of corrosion on brake lines is a significant concern that warrants a physical check for structural integrity or fluid leaks. Furthermore, the history of failing a test in July 2023 due to a worn tyre and ineffective wiper, combined with multiple advisories for perishing and edge-worn tyres in subsequent years, indicates previous owners often ran rubber down to the legal limit. Verify the current tyre tread depth and check the underbody for any fresh oil leaks or signs of long-term fluid seepage.
