2017 Suzuki Swift 1.0L Petrol · OW17 AAE

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history leading up to the most recent inspection. The February 2026 test at 56,793 miles shows a pass with no recorded defects or advisories, suggesting that previous issues have been resolved or were non-existent. The failure recorded on that same date in February 2026 is an anomaly as no specific defects were listed, but the subsequent pass indicates the vehicle met the required standards for roadworthiness at the time of testing. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical domestic use pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered 56,793 miles, averaging approximately 6,310 miles per year. The progression from 30,341 miles in February 2023 to 45,293 miles in February 2025, and finally to 56,793 miles in February 2026, shows a steady and predictable usage rate. There are no signs of sudden mileage spikes or long periods of inactivity that would suggest the vehicle has been sitting idle for extended durations. Because the MOT record is exceptionally clean and lacks advisories for common wear items like brake pads, discs, or suspension bushes, the mechanical history appears robust. However, since MOT tests are visual inspections and do not cover the full depth of mechanical health, a physical inspection should focus on the underside to check for early signs of corrosion on the exhaust or suspension components. You should also verify the condition of the tyres and wiper blades, as these consumables are often omitted from formal MOT advisories if they are only marginally within legal limits.
