2020 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Hybrid electric · WA70 VZB

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a persistent failure to address deferred items. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 23,685 miles resulted in a pass, it carried over the same advisories regarding perished rear tyres. This indicates that while the car is mechanically functional enough to pass, the owner is consistently neglecting non-critical consumable components until they reach a point of failure. The mileage profile is notably low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Between August 2023 at 14,186 miles and September 2024 at 18,818 miles, the car covered just 4,632 miles. This low usage suggests the mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain is minimal, but it also correlates with the age-related degradation of rubber-based parts and fluids, which dry out due to time rather than tread wear. A buyer must physically inspect the condition of all four tyres, as the record shows recurring cracking and perishing on the rear axle across both 2024 and 2025. The failure in September 2024 for an ineffective front wiper suggests that basic visibility maintenance is not prioritized by the current owner. Given the low mileage, an inspection should also check for brake disc corrosion and seized calipers, which are common issues in vehicles that sit stationary for long periods.
