2017 Suzuki Baleno 1.0L Petrol · PK67 MWM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test conducted on December 14, 2021 at 25,188 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean result from the September 2020 test, indicating that the vehicle maintained its mechanical integrity and structural soundness throughout the recorded inspection periods. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,800 miles per year. Between September 2020 at 21,596 miles and December 2021 at 25,188 miles, the car covered only 3,592 miles. This low usage suggests infrequent operation, which typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain components. However, the lack of MOT data since late 2021 means the vehicle has not been tested in over four years, which necessitates specific scrutiny. A prospective buyer should focus on components affected by low-mileage storage. Long periods of inactivity often lead to dry-rotted tyres, seized brake calipers, and perished rubber components such as suspension bushes or brake boots. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking and verify that the brakes move freely to ensure they are not binding. Given the significant gap in testing records, a thorough check of fluid levels and underbody corrosion is essential to ensure the car has not suffered while standing stationary.
