2019 Fiat Swift 2.3L Diesel · DL 5341

The vehicle maintains a high roadworthiness status with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted on 15 April 2025 at 8,834 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend suggests that the car has remained in a good condition throughout its service life, with no recurring mechanical or structural failures identified by the DVSA testers. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,262 miles per year. There is a notable gap in the records between December 2021 and April 2023, during which the car covered only 1,072 miles. Since the 2023 test, usage has remained minimal, covering 2,082 miles over the two-year period leading to the 2025 inspection. This low usage often indicates short-distance commuting or periods of inactivity, which limits the wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to average vehicles. While the MOT record shows no faults, a buyer must focus on specific risks associated with long-term standing. Low-mileage cars can suffer from flat-sp tyres, perished rubber components, and brake corrosion due to lack of use. A physical inspection should verify the brake discs for pitting and ensure the calipers have not seized despite the low mileage figures. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for fluid degradation and belt cracks is essential, as these elements age over time regardless of the distance driven.
