2021 Fiat Swift 2.3L Diesel · FB21 WCT

The 2026‑02‑25 MOT, the most recent test at 16,464 miles, recorded a failure for the near‑side and off‑side headlamp aim, rendering the vehicle non‑roadworthy until the alignment is corrected; the earlier 2025‑03‑11 test at 13,968 miles showed no defects, indicating a stable maintenance record with no worsening mechanical trends. At five years old, the Swift has accumulated 16,464 miles, averaging 3,293 miles per year, a figure that reflects relatively light usage or extended periods of standing; the mileage rose from 13,968 miles in March 2025 to 16,464 miles in February 2026, an increase of 2,496 miles over roughly eleven months, which is modest and does not suggest rapid wear on consumables or structural components. A buyer should therefore inspect the headlamp aim and verify correct adjustment, examine suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, check brake discs and calipers for corrosion or sticking, assess tyre tread depth and condition, look for rust on the chassis and wheel arches, and confirm that the exhaust system meets emission standards; any previous advisories should be confirmed as resolved before purchase.
