Our Verdict
Highly recommended for city drivers seeking a low-cost runaround. The exceptionally low mileage and clean recent MOT record make this a safe and sensible choice for budget motoring.
The primary selling point of this vehicle is its low mileage, which is significantly below the national average for a 2014 car. When inspecting, verify that the car has been serviced regularly, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from deferred maintenance based on mileage alone. Check for any signs of tyre wear or corrosion, which can occur on cars used primarily for very short trips. Negotiate based on the MOT failure recorded in 2024; while the car passed immediately after, you should ask the owner what the specific defect was to ensure it was repaired correctly. Beyond that, there are no red flags in the provided data to suggest mechanical de-prioritization.
With a small 996cc engine, the Alto sits in a low insurance group and benefits from low tax bands. Fuel economy is typically excellent for city driving, making it one of the cheapest petrol cars to run in the UK. nMaintenance costs are generally low due to the simple mechanical design of the Suzuki and the high availability of affordable parts. You should expect your total annual running costs to be minimal, particularly for those with low commutes.
Focus your inspection on the underbody for rust, as even low-mileage cars can develop corrosion if kept in areas with heavy salt use. Since the 2025 MOT showed no defects at 25,358 miles, the mechanical components appear to be in good order, but still check brake components for any signs of age-related wear.
Check the bodywork for stone chips or minor parking damage, which is common on small city cars. Ensure the clutch operates smoothly, as low-mileage cars used in heavy city traffic can sometimes show premature wear on the clutch.
This 2014 Suzuki Alto is a rare find, having covered just over 25,000 miles in nearly eleven years. The MOT history shows a consistent record of passes, with only a single failure recorded in October 2024 which was immediately rectified. Given its small 996cc engine and low usage, it offers a high-value proposition for short-distance urban travel.
The Suzuki Alto is generally regarded for its simplicity and robust engine design, though aggregate data is not provided.
