2017 Suzuki Vitara 1.6L Petrol · WV17 HYR

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having maintained a consistent pass record over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted in March 2026 at 54,512 miles resulted in a pass with no mechanical defects beyond a minor advisory regarding deteriorating front wiper blades. This follows a clean result in 2025, suggesting that the vehicle has not encountered significant mechanical or structural failures during recent testing cycles. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per annum. Between March 2022 at 40,209 miles and March 2026 at 54,512 miles, the car covered 14,303 miles, indicating steady low-intensity usage. This low mileage typically correlates with reduced wear on the drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking system compared to high-mileage counterparts. A buyer should pay specific attention to the front suspension geometry and tyre condition. The February 2024 test at 48,979 miles flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as worn to the legal limit with notable inner edge wear. This specific fault often indicates an alignment issue or worn ball joints and tie-rod ends. A physical inspection should verify that the current set of tyres shows even wear and that the steering remains true to prevent a recurrence of this previous failure.
