2010 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · GF60 KMY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance record over the last four years. The most recent test on September 1, 2025 at 131,401 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests a minor issue was identified and rectified immediately to ensure the vehicle met the legal standard. Since September 2022, the car has maintained a clean record without any advisories, indicating a high standard of ongoing mechanical upkeep. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,200 miles per annum. Between the 2022 test at 113,266 miles and the 2025 test at 131,401 miles, the car covered 18,135 miles showing steady annual usage. This regularity suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than sitting for long periods, which prevents seal degradation and brake corrosion. The lack of large gaps in mileage data points to a predictable wear rate on the drivetrain and suspension components. While the MOT history shows no recurring mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on common failure points for this age and model that MOT tests do not cover. You should check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches, as these areas often degrade before they become a test failure. Given the mileage, the condition of the control arm bushes and shock absorbers warrants a close look for signs of tearing or leaking. Additionally, inspect the brake discs for uneven wear or binding calipers to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the actual current state of the braking system.
