2020 Suzuki Ignis SZ3 Dualjet Mhev 1.2L Hybrid electric (clean) · SW70 AFJ

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no recorded defects across three consecutive MOT tests. The most recent 2025-10-09 inspection at 6,981 miles confirmed compliance, with no advisories or failures. Previous tests in 2024 and 2023 also showed clean results, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. The absence of recurring faults suggests the car has been well-maintained within the observed period. The mileage of 6,981 miles over six years equates to approximately 1,164 miles annually, significantly below average for a vehicle of this age. The MOT records show gradual mileage increases: 5,635 miles in 2023, 6,451 in 2024, and 6,981 in 2025, with annual intervals between tests. This pattern implies infrequent use or potential periods of inactivity, which could affect components like brake calipers, suspension bushes, or the exhaust system. The lack of defects in all tests mitigates immediate concerns but does not eliminate the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection. A buyer should prioritise checking for corrosion in the exhaust system and underbody, as low mileage can lead to moisture accumulation and rust. Suspension components, including coil springs and wishbones, should be examined for wear or binding, particularly if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Brake discs and calipers may also require scrutiny for uneven wear or sticking, as infrequent use can cause seizing. While the MOT history is clean, these areas warrant physical inspection to confirm long-term integrity.
