2009 Suzuki Swift 1.5L Petrol · GL09 WZF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive repairs regarding consumables and braking components. While it passed its most recent test in October 2025 at 108,794 miles, it failed that same inspection due to multiple tyre and brake issues. The trend suggests that the owner addresses faults only when they trigger an MOT failure, rather than performing preventative maintenance, as evidenced by the recurring nature of tyre wear and mechanical degradation. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 108,794 miles represents an average usage of approximately 6,400 miles per year, which is consistent with low-to-moderate city driving. The data shows consistent use, with 12,533 miles covered between November 2023 and November 2024, and another 5,034 miles in the following eleven months. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle is not sitting for long periods, though the low annual contributes to the degradation of rubber-based components seen in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the rear braking system, as the record flagged a binding nearside rear service brake in 2024 and low parking brake efficiency during the same period. The front brake discs were also noted as pitted and scored in 2025, indicating a lack of surface attention. Furthermore, the recurring reports of uneven tyre wear on outer edges across three consecutive MOT tests point to potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that require professional adjustment to prevent premature replacement of new tyres.
