2009 Suzuki Swift 1.3L Petrol · KA08 AJA

The vehicle presents a positive roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent inspection on 13 October 2025 with 69,568 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both July 2024 and October 2025, the car failed the test but passed retest within days, suggesting that the owner is proactive in rectifying minor faults to maintain legal compliance rather than allowing long-term mechanical neglect. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 69,568 miles is significantly below the national average, averaging approximately 4,100 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with 3,855 miles driven between July 2023 and 2024, and another 2,317 miles covered in the following year. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, such infrequent use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, fluid seals, and brake systems if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on components most affected by age and low mileage. Given the MOT record shows no recurring advisories, the structural integrity appears sound for now, but a physical check for corrosion on the underside sills and wheel arches remains essential for a Suzuki of this era. Inspect the brakes for seized calipers or perished brake hoses, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface oxidation. Additionally, the condition of the suspension bushes and tyres is vital, as rubber materials can crack and age regardless of the tread depth.
