2016 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · T1 DSV

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently clean record across five consecutive annual tests. The most recent inspection on 10 October 2025 at 23,368 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This consistency suggests the vehicle has remained in a good mechanical state without recurring hardware failures or structural degradation over the last several years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,337 miles per year. Between September 2021 at 15,984 miles and October 2025 at 23,368 miles, the car covered only 7,384 miles. While this low usage generally implies minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine, and braking system, the long intervals between uses can sometimes lead to age-related component issues. The data shows a steady, predictable accumulation of mileage without any sudden spikes that would suggest heavy-distance commuting. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should conduct a physical inspection of components susceptible to low-mileage operation. Focus on the tyres for cracking in the sidewalls and perished suspension bushes, which often fail from age rather than distance. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers if the car has sat stationary for long periods. Additionally, verify the condition of rubber hoses and fluids, as these degrade over a decade regardless of the mileage recorded on the odometer.
