2016 Suzuki SX4 1.6L Petrol · WD16 RRO

The vehicle remains in roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend despite minor recurring consumable issues. The most recent test in August 2025 at 44,382 miles resulted in a pass, though it identified a nearside front tyre worn to the legal limit on the edge. This indicates that while the owner addresses immediate safety failures, there is a tendency to defer routine preventative maintenance until it coincides with the MOT inspection interval. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,400 miles per annum. Data shows consistent low-level usage, moving from 35,492 miles in July 2022 to 44,382 miles by August 2025. This low mileage typically suggests less wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension components, though long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, such as bushings and brake seals, which are not fully captured by mileage figures alone. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the current tyre set, as the 2024 failure for a cut offside front tyre and the 2025 advisory for the nearside front suggest potential uneven wear or poor alignment. The tester should check for camber or toe issues that might explain why one tyre is wearing prematurely. Given the low mileage, it is also vital to inspect the brake discs for corrosion and the underbody for rust on the chassis, as stationary vehicles often suffer from age-related oxidation rather than mechanical wear.
