This 2001 Suzuki has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 23,914 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 25-year-old vehicle, presents significant long-term risks.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 5,074 miles/year, with a significant drop in usage from 2010 onwards, raising odometer fraud concerns.
Things to check
- Recurring brake failures (Oct 2010, Oct 2012) and advisories (Oct 2006, Oct 2007) indicate a systemic neglect of critical safety components.
- Tyre issues (Oct 2007, Oct 2012) and a corroded brake pipe (Oct 2007) point to a history of poor maintenance.
- The vehicle has been untaxed since 2001, suggesting long periods of inactivity or neglect.
- The 25-year-old vehicle with only 23,914 miles is a significant red flag for potential hidden mechanical issues.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a current, valid MOT certificate as of October 2012, indicating it is roadworthy at present.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories are present, suggesting the owner has addressed immediate issues.
- The car has consistently passed retests after failures, showing a responsive owner to safety concerns.
- The low annual mileage (5,074 miles/year) suggests minimal wear and tear on some components.
