Meet the S-Cross: Big-Car Practicality, Small-Car Bills
Think of the Suzuki S-Cross as the laid-back cousin of the Vitara: same proven 1.4 Boosterjet mild-hybrid engine, more boot space, and a cabin that feels grown-up enough for the school-run yet nimble enough for the A14’s weaving slip roads. Our customers swap into S-Crosses when a hatchback starts to feel cramped but a full-fat SUV looks overkill.
At Close Motor Company, we know that drivers in Kettering, Corby, Northampton, Peterborough, Leicester, Market Harborough, and Bedford need a car that adapts to every journey—whether it’s the school run, a weekend escape, or the daily commute. That’s why our selection of used Suzuki S-Cross models stands out for versatility, comfort, and real-world practicality.
Why Choose a Used Suzuki S-Cross With Us?
The S-Cross is built for British roads! Its elevated ride height gives you confidence on country lanes around Market Harborough and Bedford, while the spacious interior makes every family trip to Leicester or Peterborough a pleasure. With advanced safety features and efficient hybrid technology available on newer models, you’ll enjoy peace of mind and lower running costs—essential for busy lives in Northampton or Corby.
Why the S-Cross Works Around Here
-
Kettering & Corby dual commutes – Adaptive cruise (standard on Motion & Ultra) keeps the A6 and A43 tolerable, while the 48-volt hybrid nudges 50 mpg.
-
Market Harborough B-roads – Lighter than most crossovers, the S-Cross doesn’t lumber through the B6047’s blind crests.
-
Northampton & Bedford motorway miles – Radar cruise + lane-hold = calmer M1 and A421 drives; tyres start at an affordable 215/55 R17.
-
Cambridge congestion plans – Euro 6d-Final petrol engine already meets every Clean Air Zone on the table, so no feared surcharges.
Everyday Costs in Plain Numbers
Running a Suzuki S-Cross is refreshingly straightforward when it comes to everyday costs. Real-world fuel economy typically ranges from 47 to 52 mpg in mixed A14 and town driving, helping you save at the pump.
In terms of insurance, this falls into groups 20 to 22, making it more affordable than many Qashqai equivalents. Road tax is a simple flat rate of £180 per year, and scheduled servicing—including oil, filter, and a full inspection—costs just £199. Thanks to the timing-chain engine, you won’t face an unexpected five-year timing belt replacement bill, keeping long-term maintenance worry-free.
Questions Real Buyers Ask (and Straight Answers)
Is ALLGRIP worth the extra money?
If your driveway slopes or you visit muddy showgrounds, yes. Otherwise, winter tyres on the 2WD model offer 90 % of the grip for less weight and better mpg.
Does the panoramic roof creak?
Early 2017 units did; Suzuki changed the seal. All our cars are 2020-on, and we water-test every roof before sale.
Will three Isofix seats fit across the back?
Two fit easily; three only with narrow boosters. Bring yours—our techs will help trial-fit during the test drive.
Can I tow a lightweight caravan?
Braked limit is 1 500 kg. Customers haul vintage Eribas and small Bailey Discoverys without drama; fit a genuine 13-pin loom for full warranty cover.
