2018 Suzuki Swift 1.4L Petrol · WD18 AEC

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, maintaining an exceptionally stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 22 July 2025 at 52,518 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This consistent clean sheet across the last four annual tests suggests that the vehicle has been well-maintained and has not suffered from the recurring mechanical failures often seen in older city cars. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 21,021 miles and July 2025 at 52,518 miles, the car covered 31,497 miles, indicating a pattern of regular use rather than long periods of sitting. The 13,966 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows the vehicle remains in active use, which generally helps prevent the seizing of various drivetrain and suspension components compared to low-mileage examples. While the MOT history shows no structural or mechanical failures, a physical inspection should still focus on components subject to age-related degradation. Given the relatively low mileage, a buyer should check for rubber cracking in suspension bushes and tyre boots, which can perish over eight years regardless of distance. The lack of advisories for brake calipers or exhaust corrosion suggests the braking system is in good condition, but verifying the thickness of brake discs for pitting remains a standard professional precaution.
