How the Suzuki Grand holds up with age
Every car fails the MOT more often as it gets older. What matters when you are buying is how steeply that happens for this particular model. These are the 2025 pass rates for the Suzuki Grand grouped by the vehicle's age at the time of the test.
| Age at test | Tests | Pass rate |
|---|---|---|
| 3–5 years | 2 | 100% |
| 6–10 years | 54 | 87.04% |
| 11 years and over | 18,144 | 69.17% |
The Suzuki Grand drops 30.8 percentage points between its early years and the 11-plus bracket, which is a steep decline. On an older example, the MOT history is worth reading closely before you buy.
Why the Suzuki Grand fails its MOT
Across every Suzuki Grand that failed its 2025 MOT, the most common area of failure was suspension, accounting for 23.97% of all recorded failure items. These are the areas worth having checked before you buy, and worth budgeting for on an older example.

|---|---|---|
| Suspension | 23.97% | 4,420 |
| Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment | 20.32% | 3,747 |

Ranked on pass rate, the Suzuki Grand sits 531st of 651 models in this data , and 10th of the 13 Suzuki models covered . Suzuki as a whole averaged 79.76%, so this model runs 10.5 points behind its own brand average.
What this means when buying a used Suzuki Grand
A pass rate is a population average, not a verdict on the specific car in front of you. The average Suzuki Grand came to its 2025 test at 92,528 miles and 17.6 years old. Most examples tested were petrol, though 23.87% were diesel.
The useful check is the individual car's own MOT record: how many times it has failed, what for, and whether advisories keep reappearing. A recurring advisory on corrosion, suspension or brakes tells you far more than a model-wide average, and a mileage that does not move consistently between tests is a warning in itself.
