2014 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · GF14 ADO

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-09-29 at 125,877 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating current roadworthiness. However, the MOT history reveals inconsistencies, including duplicate entries for 2024-10-17 and 2023-10-18, where both PASSED and FAILED outcomes are listed without defect details. This suggests potential administrative errors or unresolved issues that were later resolved, but the lack of specific defect data limits definitive conclusions. The absence of recurring mechanical failures in the latest test implies a stable maintenance trend, though the sparse detail in earlier records prevents a full assessment of long-term reliability. The vehicle’s mileage of 125,877 miles over 12 years aligns with an average of 10,490 miles annually, reflecting typical usage. Mileage progression shows gradual accumulation, with 107,963 miles in 2023 rising to 118,019 by 2024 and 125,877 in 2025. Gaps between MOT tests span 11–12 months, which is standard, but the lack of intermediate inspections means no insight into maintenance frequency. The absence of high-mileage wear indicators in the MOT records suggests the owner prioritized basic upkeep, though no evidence of proactive servicing or component replacements is present. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, as coil springs and bushes often degrade with age, and the vehicle’s 12-year lifespan may have exacerbated wear. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be inspected for corrosion or uneven wear, as these can develop without MOT failures. Structural integrity, particularly underbody rust, warrants scrutiny, as the vehicle’s age and mileage increase vulnerability. While the MOT history shows no critical issues, the lack of detailed defect records necessitates a physical inspection to confirm the absence of hidden faults, such as exhaust system leaks or electrical system degradation.
