AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Suzuki has 21 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 34,231 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly irregular, with periods of very low usage and a significant initial jump, raising serious integrity concerns.

The vehicle shows a 6-year period of extremely low usage (233 mi/yr equivalent) from 2016 to 2022, followed by a 6-year period of very low usage (393 mi/yr equivalent) from 2022 to 2023, and a 6-year period of extremely low usage (303 mi/yr equivalent) from 2023 to 2024, and a 6-year period of extremely low usage (169 mi/yr equivalent) from 2024 to 2025.

Things to check

  • Major suspension failure recorded on 2019-11-21 for Nearside Rear Coil spring fractured or broken.
  • Recurring brake system advisories on 2013-10-18 and 2014-11-21 indicate a pattern of wear.
  • Six-year service gap from 2021-01-01 to 2021-12-31 is a significant red flag for maintenance.
  • Unusually high initial mileage (18,122 mi/yr equivalent) from 2011-09-30 to 2014-11-21, then extremely low for years.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-20, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recent major failures or dangerous defects recorded on the latest MOT.
  • Consistent annual mileage increases since 2014, despite initial low usage.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers.
