2015 Suzuki Alto 1.0L Petrol · LP64 WLE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the most recent inspection indicates a shift toward deteriorating maintenance standards. While the car passed its test in June 2026 at 75,267 miles, the tester flagged three distinct advisories that require immediate attention. These include a worn nearside front suspension arm pin or bush, a nearside front tyre reaching the legal limit, and severely deteriorated front inner drive shaft CV boots. These findings suggest that preventative maintenance on rubber components is currently being neglected. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, with 11,804 miles covered between May 2023 and June 2024, and another 9,567 miles between June 2024 and June 2026. The failure in 2025 at 66,120 miles due to a structural tear in the offside rear tyre was rectified quickly, but the subsequent advisories indicate the owner is only addressing issues once they reach a terminal failure point. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension to check for the extent of play in the nearside arm bush. The deteriorated condition of the drive shaft boots is a priority, as if these tear further, grease leakage will lead to rapid CV joint failure and significantly more expensive repair costs. The nearside front tyre requires immediate replacement due to edge wear. Beyond these flagged items, the chassis should be checked for corrosion, as the record does not yet show any structural issues despite the vehicle's age.
