2014 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · SD64 RJZ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 7 January 2026 at 43,731 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the results of the previous four years. This consistency suggests the vehicle has remained well-maintained and has not suffered from recurring mechanical or structural failures that typically plague older hatchbacks. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,644 miles per year. Between December 2022 and January 2026, the car covered only 8,642 miles, indicating periods of very light use or extended storage. The gap between the November 2024 and January 2026 tests shows a minor accumulation of 2,681 miles, suggesting the car often sits stationary for significant intervals. While low mileage generally implies less wear on drivetrain and engine components, it can introduce specific risks related to ageated materials and fluid stagnation. While the MOT history is immaculate, a buyer must physically inspect components that degrade due to time rather than distance. A technician should specifically check for perished rubber elements, including suspension bushes, tyre boots, and window seals, which can crack when a vehicle sits. Given the low usage, the brake discs should be examined for surface corrosion or seized calipers caused by lack of friction. Additionally, the structural integrity of the chassis and underbody check for hidden rust are essential to ensure that the low mileage has not masked environmental degradation over the vehicle's life.
