Our Verdict
This is a strong used buy for a 2020 Suzuki Swift with a clean MOT record and sensible mileage. The only caution is minor wear-and-tear flagged in 2024 that should be confirmed as resolved before purchase.
Before buying, ask the seller for evidence that the perished rear tyres noted at the 2024 MOT (185/55 R16) were replaced, and that the front brake pads and discs were attended to as advised. A full service history for this 1.2-litre petrol Swift will help confirm routine maintenance was kept up. Given the small 1242cc engine and Euro 6 DG emissions, this is a straightforward, low-complexity car to own, so negotiation should focus on proof of recent tyre and brake work rather than major mechanical concerns.
The 1.2-litre petrol Swift is well known for low running costs, with excellent fuel economy and a modest VED band thanks to its Euro 6 DG status. Insurance groups for this model are typically low, making it an affordable choice for new or budget-conscious drivers. Based on the mileage pattern and small engine, we estimate total annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and routine maintenance at around £800-£1,000.
Check the rear tyres closely as the 2024 MOT recorded both rear tyres perished on the 185/55 R16 size; confirm they are now in good condition with adequate tread. Inspect the front brakes, since the same MOT advised pads were getting low and discs would need replacement when pads were done. Otherwise, the vehicle's MOT history shows no defects in 2022, 2023 or 2025, so a general visual check of bodywork, fluids and electrics on this red CP69GXM example should suffice.
The red 2020 Suzuki Swift (CP69GXM) has passed every MOT since first registration, with the latest test in September 2025 at 36,498 miles showing no defects. The 2024 MOT noted perished rear tyres and low front pads, but these are routine consumables rather than structural or mechanical failures. At just over 36,000 miles for a six-and-a-half-year-old car, the mileage is modest and consistent with light annual use of around 3,000-4,000 miles.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Suzuki Swift, so assessment is limited to this vehicle's individual history.
