SUZUKI SWIFT2017 · 1.0L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having achieved a clean pass on 23 March 2026 at 74,268 miles. This recent result indicates an improving maintenance trend following a mechanical failure in the previous year. While the history shows intermittent issues with consumable components, the most recent inspection recorded no defects, suggesting the current owner has addressed the outstanding mechanical items to bring the car back to a standard operating condition. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,252 miles per annum. Between March 2024 and March 2025, the car covered 4,729 miles, followed by a further 5,842 miles in the year-long period leading up to the 2026 test. This steady usage suggests the car is driven regularly, which helps prevent the degradation associated with long periods of standing, while avoiding the excessive wear on the drivetrain and suspension common with high-intensity commuting. A buyer should pay close attention to the front-end geometry and braking system. The March 2024 test at 63,697 miles flagged thin front brake pads and pitted discs, while the 2025 failure at 68,426 miles highlighted inner-edge wear on the front tyres. This combination often points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that cause uneven tyre scrub. An in-person inspection should verify that the current tyres are wearing evenly and that the steering remains free of vibration or pulling. The 2023 record at 59,124 miles noted perishing on the rear tyres, which is typical for older rubber despite relatively low mileage. Although the 2026 test passed without comment, the buyer should check the sidewalls for further cracking and ensure the previous windscreen wiper failure in 2025 has been properly remedied with high-quality blades to maintain clear visibility during adverse weather.
