2007 Suzuki Swift 1.3L Petrol · CV57 ORH

The Suzuki Swift presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 27 August 2024 at 96,188 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, though the test history shows an odd pattern of two prior failures with no listed defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical faults. The vehicle cleared every recorded pass without advisories, indicating no outstanding wear flags across the suspension, braking, or emissions systems at the time of testing. At roughly 19 years old, the Swift shows 96,188 miles, equating to about 5,063 miles per year, which is low for its age. The records show minimal annual use: 85,754 miles in March 2022, rising to 87,520 by June 2023, then 96,140 by June 2024. The jump of roughly 8,600 miles between June 2023 and June 2024 marks the highest single-year accumulation in the data, yet remains modest. Low mileage with long standing periods raises the risk of perished rubber components and corrosion rather than drivetrain fatigue. The two failure entries from 29 April 2023 at 87,507 miles and 5 June 2024 at 96,140 miles carry no recorded defects, so no recurring mechanical fault can be traced. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity, focusing on chassis legs, sills, and subframe for rust given the vehicle's age and likely intermittent use. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs should be physically checked for age-related degradation not captured in a clean MOT. Given the sparse and clean record, the Swift appears conscientiously maintained with no advisories or consumable neglect flagged. Verify the reason for the two no-defect failures with DVSA, and confirm the low-mileage claim via service history before purchase.
