2016 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · OV16 KWL

The vehicle presents a generally roadworthy profile with a stable maintenance trend that suggests consistent upkeep. The most recent test conducted on 27 June 2025 at 64,038 miles passed successfully, despite an advisory for a nearside front tyre worn near the legal limit and showing uneven wear. This indicates that while the vehicle remains mechanically sound for road use, consumables are beginning to require attention to prevent future failures or safety issues. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per annum. Between July 2021 and June 2025, the car covered 7,665 miles, showing a steady usage profile rather than long periods of stagnation or sudden bursts of high mileage. This low usage typically reduces strain on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to aging of rubber components. The data suggests the car has avoided the heavy mechanical wear often seen in high-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension components, as the July 2023 test at 60,761 miles flagged an offside front lower anti-roll bar ball joint with play and a severely deteriorated dust cover. While these were likely addressed given the subsequent pass, the buyer should check the remaining ball joints and bushes for signs of wear or play. The uneven wear noted on the nearside front tyre in the latest record also warrants a check of the wheel alignment to ensure the geometry is not prematurely consuming the new set of tyres.
