AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Suzuki has 17 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 17,523 miles. The vehicle's history of recurring failures and advisories for critical components like the timing chain and head gasket, despite a recent clean MOT pass, indicates a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 6,382 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent clean MOT pass in Feb 2026.
Things to check
- 2011 Suzuki timing chain and head gasket issues are well-documented model weaknesses.
- Feb 2021 and Feb 2022 MOT failures for the same system (timing chain/head gasket) suggest unresolved underlying problems.
- Feb 2024 MOT failure for the same system indicates a pattern of neglect for critical engine components.
- Feb 2026 MOT pass is clean, but the recurring nature of timing chain and head gasket advisories is a major concern.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-24 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent low annual mileage (6,382 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear on components.
- No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded on the latest test in Feb 2026.
- Mileage trajectory is consistent with no anomalies, indicating genuine low usage.
