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

This 2003 Suzuki has 28 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 10,071 miles. The very low annual mileage of 2,567 miles per year, combined with a 23-year-old vehicle, presents significant unverified wear and potential for hidden issues.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 2,567 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage from 2020 onwards (e.g., 1,330 miles in 2022). This pattern is highly unusual and warrants thorough investigation.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures in critical safety systems: brakes (4 failures), bodywork (1 failure), and emissions (1 failure).
  • Extremely low annual mileage (2,567 mi/yr) for a 23-year-old vehicle, suggesting long periods of inactivity.
  • Multiple recurring advisories on the same components (e.g., suspension, fuel system) across multiple tests.
  • The 2025-02-26 FAILED MOT for a major exhaust leak, followed by a PASS the same day, is a classic 'just passed MOT' tactic.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT until 2027-03-01, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering is present in the MOT history.
  • The car has consistently passed retests after failures, showing that issues were addressed.
  • No recurring failures of the same system have been noted in the most recent MOTs.
