2015 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · LP64 WLH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a persistent trend of neglect regarding wear components. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 58,379 miles passed with only an advisory for an offside front tyre worn to the legal limit, this represents a minor shift from previous years where multiple mechanical defects were flagged. The history suggests an owner who only addresses issues when they approach an MOT failure threshold rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 58,379 miles, this eleven-year-old Suzuki Swift has averaged approximately 5,300 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for its age. The mileage accumulation pattern is remarkably consistent, with roughly 2,000 miles covered between the January 2024 and February 2026 tests. However, low mileage often correlates with age-related degradation of rubber components, which is evidenced by the recurring perishing and cracking of the rearside tyre noted in 2023 and 2024. A buyer must pay close attention to the front suspension assembly, as the suspension arm pins and bushes have been flagged as worn in four consecutive tests starting from January 2023. Although the tester did not find excessive movement to warrant a failure, the persistence of this advisory indicates the bushes are nearing the end of their functional life. The braking system also requires scrutiny following the failure for low parking brake efficiency and insufficient lever travel in 2023, followed by advisories for thin pads and pitted discs in 2024. A physical inspection should confirm if the front brakes have since been replaced or if the handbrake mechanism remains adjusted and worn.
