2020 Suzuki Swift SZ-T Dualjet Shvs 1.2L Hybrid electric · MX20 YYU

The 2020 Suzuki Swift SZ-T Dualjet SHVS currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 19 February 2026 at 56,285 miles, which remains in force until 18 February 2027. The maintenance trend over the past three years is broadly stable, with no evidence of escalating mechanical or structural deterioration. The most recent test passed on the same day as an earlier failure, indicating that the offside headlamp dipped beam fault was rectified promptly before the retest. Recurring advisories concerning front brake pad wear and offside front tyre wear appear consistently across multiple tests, suggesting these are routine consumable items being flagged at or near replacement intervals rather than symptomatic of a deeper mechanical fault. The vehicle has covered 56,285 miles from new, averaging approximately 9,381 miles per year, which is typical for a six-year-old supermini. The MOT record shows a steady annual progression: 32,496 miles in February 2024, 44,562 miles in February 2025, and 56,285 miles in February 2026, representing roughly 12,000 to 14,000 miles per annum in the most recent two years. There are no unusual gaps or sudden jumps in the odometer readings that would raise concern about mileage tampering or prolonged periods of inactivity. The annual testing pattern has been consistent each February, providing a reliable chronological service record. A buyer inspecting this Swift in person should pay particular attention to the condition of the front brake pads and discs, given that pad wear has been flagged at the February 2024 test and again at the February 2026 test. The offside front tyre has appeared as an advisory in three of the last four MOT entries, which may point to uneven wear caused by tracking, suspension bush degradation, or simply a tyre that has been run close to the legal limit repeatedly. It would be prudent to check the nearside front tyre for similar wear patterns and to inspect the front suspension components, including drop links, track rod ends, and wishbone bushes, for any play or deterioration. The offside headlamp dipped beam failure noted in the February 2026 failure entry was resolved for the retest, so verifying that both headlamps function correctly on dipped and main beam is advisable. Beyond these points, the record contains no structural corrosion, exhaust emission, or steering advisories, which is encouraging for a vehicle of this age and mileage.
