2015 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · HV65 UBF

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 24 November 2025 at 36,336 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance status. The prior test on 25 November 2024 also passed at 31,500 miles, though a failed test was logged on the same date and mileage—a discrepancy likely reflecting a minor issue resolved before retesting. No recurring faults appear in the record, and all passed tests show no advisories or defects, suggesting consistent compliance with safety standards. Mileage progression reveals light utilisation: 22,234 miles in November 2022, rising to 27,871 by November 2023 (5,637 miles in 12 months), then 31,500 in November 2024 (3,629 miles), and 36,336 in November 2025 (4,836 miles). This averages approximately 3,303 miles annually over 11 years, well below typical usage for its age. The steady, low accumulation implies infrequent driving or extended periods of inactivity, which can preserve mechanical components but may accelerate degradation of rubber seals, plastic trim, and lubricants. The absence of rapid mileage spikes or erratic growth patterns supports the conclusion of careful, low-stress ownership. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing or cracking, particularly given the age and potential for long-term static periods. Brake discs and pads, though unflagged in recent tests, warrant inspection for uneven wear or glazing. Check for corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the exhaust system, as low mileage does not preclude surface rust development. The engine bay and transmission should be examined for signs of fluid leaks or moisture ingress, which can occur during extended storage. Finally, test the handbrake and parking brake mechanism for proper engagement, as infrequent use may lead to seized cables or caliper binding.
