2007 Suzuki Swift 1.3L Petrol · DE07 OFN

The sole available DVSA record shows the 2007 Suzuki Swift failed its MOT on 12 November 2021 at 143,457 miles, with no defects formally recorded by the tester. This single failed test nearly five years ago leaves the current roadworthiness entirely unverified. The maintenance trend cannot be classed as stable, worsening, or improving due to the absence of any subsequent passing data. At 143,457 miles over roughly 19 years the annual average sits near 7,550 miles, a typical figure for a car of this age. The recorded mileage has not changed across later entries because no later tests exist. A gap of almost five years since the last test means the vehicle may have been laid up, used untaxed, or simply not presented for inspection; such a lapse prevents any judgement on recent wear rates or accumulation. A buyer must treat this Swift as unroadworthy until a fresh test proves otherwise. The November 2021 failure with no listed defects suggests an administrative or unclassified fault, but the tester logged nothing on brakes, suspension, exhaust, or structure. Given the age and 143k mileage, physical inspection should target front suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc corrosion, and underbody structural rust. Prior to purchase, commission an independent mechanical inspection and a current MOT. The missing defect detail from 2021 offers no assurance on consumables or mechanical condition today.
