Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to high mileage
Prioritise a review of the service history to see how the vehicle has been managed given its high mileage. You should verify that the rear brake hose ferrules and front brake pads, which caused the August 2025 failure, were fully replaced rather than minimally repaired. Negotiate based on the remaining life of the front tyres and the condition of the offside wing mirror, both of which remained as advisories after the latest pass.
Check for any evidence of recent suspension work, as the anti-roll bar linkage dust covers were a point of failure in 2024. Given the mileage, ensure the engine oil and coolant are clean and that there are no leaks, as the vehicle has travelled far more than the typical Swift of this age.
The 998cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency and typically falls into a low tax bracket, making it an economical choice for urban commuting. Insurance groups for this model are generally low, which helps keep fixed annual costs down.
However, with 116,184 miles on the clock, typical maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average. You should budget for more frequent replacement of wear-and-tear items, such as tyres and brakes, as evidenced by the recent MOT history.
Carefully inspect the braking system, specifically the rear brake hoses, as excessive corrosion was noted in the August 2025 MOT. Check the depth of the front tyres and the thickness of the front brake pads, as these were flagged as wearing thin in the latest advisory report.
Examine the offside wing mirror for damage and check the anti-roll bar linkage dust covers to ensure they are intact following the 2024 failure. Finally, test the windscreen wipers and rear position lamps to ensure the faults identified in 2025 have been permanently resolved.
This blue 2017 Suzuki Swift has covered 116,184 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average. The MOT history shows failures in both 2024 and 2025, with the most recent test recording issues ranging from corroded brake hose ferrules to worn tyres and brake pads. While it passed its August 2025 test, the record indicates a vehicle that requires consistent attention to maintain its roadworthiness.
The Suzuki Swift has a respectable 80% average MOT pass rate across 133,231 analysed vehicles, with tyres and headlamps being the most common failure points.
