2012 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · LS12 LPZ

The 2012 Suzuki Swift presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 25 April 2025 at 50,578 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Across the four subsequent annual tests from April 2022 to April 2025, the vehicle cleared each examination without advisories or noted wear, indicating consistent upkeep over the past three years. The recorded mileage of 50,578 against a 14-year-old car equates to a low average of roughly 3,613 miles per year. The history shows gentle, linear accumulation: 41,207 miles in April 2022, 46,090 by April 2023, 48,574 in April 2024, and 50,578 in April 2025. The only anomaly is a failed test on 21 April 2022 at 41,206 miles, immediately retested the same day at 41,207 miles and passed with no defects logged, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Sparse clean records limit deep wear analysis but imply light use, possibly with long standing periods. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low mileage and likely intermittent use, as corrosion or perished rubbers can develop without road use. The absence of advisories on exhaust emissions or structural integrity is reassuring, yet standing vehicles often hide underbody rust unseen by MOT testers. Verify the April 2022 failure cause with DVSA, though no defect appears on file. Prior owners clearly kept basic consumable wear in check, but confirm tyre sidewall condition and caliper freedom before purchase given the car's age.
