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

This 2012 Suzuki has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 190,509 miles. The vehicle also shows a pattern of recurring brake and tyre issues, indicating a high-risk purchase.

The odometer reading of 190,509 miles in July 2015 is a major concern, as it decreased to 24,770 miles by July 2016, suggesting possible tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Dec 2025): Offside Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick metal to metal (1.1.13 (a) (ii)
  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Jul 2015 (190,509 mi) and Jul 2016 (24,770 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • Odometer fraud: Mileage decreased from 190,509 mi (Jul 2015) to 24,770 mi (Jul 2016) — a critical safety concern.
  • Recurring brake failures: Multiple brake system failures and advisories across 6+ years, including DANGEROUS defects.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until December 2026, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
  • No major structural corrosion or suspension failures noted in the MOT history.
  • Consistent annual mileage post-2016, suggesting regular use despite earlier anomalies.
  • No evidence of Cat N/S write-off markers in the provided DVLA data.
