Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Suzuki Swift presents as roadworthy at its most recent examination. The October 2024 test at 133,733 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the supplied history is stable with no recurring advisories or mechanical faults carried between visits. The vehicle shows a clean MOT profile over the last three years. Recorded mileage sits at 133,733 against an 18 year lifespan, averaging roughly 7,430 miles per year which is typical for the age. The November 2022 test at 109,635 miles and the September 2023 pass at 121,607 miles confirm steady annual use of around 11,000 to 12,000 miles, then a lower 12,000 mile gain to the 2024 examination. The data is sparse but clean, with no major gaps or sudden accumulation suggesting neglected high-load driving. The record shows two failed tests on consecutive days in both November 2022 and September 2023, each followed by a pass at near identical mileage with no defects logged. This pattern implies the failures were administrative or minor presentational issues cleared same-day rather than structural or mechanical repairs. No tester ever flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, exhaust emissions, or binding calipers across the history. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's 2008 build date and 133,733 miles. Verify the condition of consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades despite their absence from the record, and confirm the brake calipers and coil springs show no latent wear not captured by the DVSA tests.
