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

The 2012 Suzuki Swift presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 14 August 2025 at 92,777 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle carries no advisories or defects in any test, and the most recent pass confirms the car met emissions and structural standards at the time of testing. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a fourteen-year-old car, rising from 84,307 miles at the July 2023 test to 88,352 miles by August 2024 and 92,777 miles by August 2025, an average of roughly 4,200 miles per year over that span. The DVSA entries are sparse and clean, showing no recorded faults, though the failed tests on 2 August 2024 at 88,250 miles and 13 August 2025 at 92,771 miles list no defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical rejection. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the car's age and the absence of any advisory data to confirm hidden wear. The repeated no-defect failures suggest the previous owners addressed paperwork promptly but left no technical trail of consumable condition, so tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition warrant a physical check before purchase. Given the clean record and ordinary mileage, the Swift shows no evidence of neglected upkeep, yet the lack of advisories across eleven years of testing is unusual and merits verification of genuine service history. Treat the MOT as a pass/fail snapshot rather than proof of component health on a vehicle now beyond major manufacturer warranty.
