2009 Suzuki Grand Vitara Ddis 1.9L Heavy oil · MNZ 6069

The 2024‑07‑04 MOT at 157,389 miles passed without any defects, confirming that the Grand Vitara remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable condition. No recurring faults have emerged across the successive tests. The mileage has risen from 89,972 miles in the April 2018 test to 157,389 miles in July 2024, an increase of 67,417 miles over six years, averaging about 11,200 miles per year, which exceeds the typical 9,258 miles per year for a 17‑year‑old vehicle. Intervals between tests range from a single month in early 2022 to roughly two years in 2020‑2022, indicating regular use with occasional periods of inactivity, but the overall progression is steady rather than accelerating. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or cracking, verify that the rear brake calipers move freely and that the discs show no scoring or excessive wear, and inspect the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks that could affect emissions. Particular attention to structural integrity is advisable, especially around the wheel arches, chassis rails and underbody, as the record contains no explicit rust advisories but does not guarantee absence of hidden corrosion. Given the consistent pass rate and the absence of recorded defects, the vehicle presents no immediate mechanical concerns, yet a thorough physical inspection of the items listed above remains essential before purchase.
