MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Suzuki Swift (RA12 VCD) between April 2024 and April 2026.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (7 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Lighting (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Front Brake pipe excessively corroded (1.1.11 (c))”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”.
