2016 Suzuki Celerio 1.0L Petrol · NV65 KVR

The most recent MOT on 2026-01-08 confirmed the 2016 Suzuki Celerio passed with two brake disc defects: both nearside and offside front discs were worn, pitted, or scored but not seriously weakened. This aligns with a pattern of brake system issues, including corroded brake pipes and sub-frame corrosion, observed in prior MOTs. The vehicle’s low mileage of 54,869 miles (about 5,487 miles per year) suggests lighter use or periods of inactivity, which may contribute to corrosion risks rather than typical wear from high mileage. Recurring defects include corrosion on brake pipes, sub-frames, and vehicle structures, with the 2025 MOT noting corroded front and rear brake pipes, sub-frames, and tyres with minor cracking. While some issues like tyre damage were addressed by 2026, corrosion on brake pipes and structural components persisted. The 2023 MOT included a failure due to tyre tears, which were resolved by the 2026 check. Overall, the trend shows consistent but non-critical defects, with no major safety risks identified in the latest test. The mileage context implies the vehicle may have experienced periods of under-use, which can accelerate corrosion and rubber component degradation. However, the low mileage also suggests less wear on mechanical systems like the drivetrain and suspension. Buyers should assess whether the corrosion observed in past MOTs has been adequately addressed, as untreated rust can compromise structural integrity over time.
