AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2018 Suzuki Swift presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 April 2025 at 42,798 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT results since the vehicle was four years old. Mileage has accumulated slowly and evenly across the record. The April 2021 test at 9,083 miles rose to 18,227 by April 2022, 25,411 by April 2023, 33,842 by April 2024, and 42,798 by April 2025. That averages roughly 8,700 miles between annual tests and equates to about 5,350 miles per year over the car's life. No gaps or sudden jumps appear in the data, and the DVSA history shows no advisories, failures, or partial retests at any stage. A clean MOT sheet with zero advisories across five years suggests the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current, though it does not confirm the depth of mechanical servicing. Low annual mileage paired with no flagged corrosion, worn suspension bushes, or brake disc issues implies the Swift likely spent periods stationary and saw light urban use rather than hard motorway cycles. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection before purchase. With the car standing for stretches between short trips, check for perished rubber components, flat-spotted tyres, and surface corrosion on structural members that a pass test would not capture. Verify cambelt or chain interval history and confirm brake calipers are free, since low use can mask binding through lack of heat cycling.
