2014 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · NJ64 XMY

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 11 September 2025 at 48,878 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, despite a failure two miles prior. This initial failure likely represents an administrative error or a minor sensor issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical fault. Since the 2022 test, the car has consistently passed without any recorded advisories or failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,073 miles per year. Between the August 2022 test at 37,396 miles and the September 2025 test at 48,878 miles, the car covered 11,482 miles over three years. This suggests short-distance commuting or infrequent use. While low mileage generally reduces wear on high-friction components like brake pads and engine-related parts, it also increases the risk of dry degradation in rubber-based components and fluid breakdown due to prolonged inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on signs of age-related degradation rather than mileage-related wear. Because the car has sat for long periods, check for cracking tyre sidewalls, perished wiper blades, and aging suspension bushes. Inspect the brake discs for surface pitting or seized calipers, as low-use vehicles often suffer from brake system corrosion. Given the clean MOT history, the structural integrity appears sound, but a close look at the underbody remains necessary to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed during periods of storage.
