2009 Suzuki SX4 1.6L Petrol · LD59 ARX

The 2022‑12‑01 MOT at 193,296 miles resulted in a pass, though the tester flagged an inoperative off‑side registration plate lamp, worn front suspension arm pin or bush, near‑side rear service brake binding, and slightly low rear park brake efficiency. The maintenance trend over the past two years remains stable, with only minor advisories recurring rather than any major structural or mechanical failures. The mileage has risen from 26,021 miles in the 2012 test to 193,296 miles in the 2022 test, a steady increase of roughly 11,370 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s 17‑year age and indicates regular use without prolonged periods of standing. A buyer should therefore inspect the front suspension components for worn pins or bushes and check the condition of the coil spring after the 2021 fracture, examine the rear service brake for binding and the park brake for efficiency, verify tyre tread depth on the near‑side rear and off‑side front positions, and look for any oil leaks or corrosion on the chassis and shock absorbers that have been noted since 2013.
