2018 Suzuki Swift 1.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · ND67 LBK

The vehicle currently presents as roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 20 January 2026 with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the sequence of three tests conducted within a single day suggests a period of administrative or technical inconsistency that required immediate resolution. The failures on 19 and 20 January 2026 at approximately 48,360 miles show no recorded defects, which often indicates clerical errors or minor-related non-compliance that was rectified instantly before the final successful test. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. The car recorded 31,081 miles in January 2024 and 40,066 miles by February 2025, representing a journey of 8,985 miles over thirteen months. The subsequent 8,295 miles leading to the January 2026 test maintain this steady usage profile. This low annual mileage generally implies less strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber seals and hoses due to longer periods of standing. Given the clean MOT history since 2024, a buyer should focus the physical inspection on components that affect low-mileage vehicles. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spotting, as low usage can lead to perished rubber despite sufficient tread. The record shows no history of structural corrosion or suspension wear, but a manual check of the brake lines and coil springs is necessary to ensure no hidden play has developed between the annual test intervals.
