2014 Suzuki Swift 1.2L Petrol · WM14 VLP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive upkeep regarding consumables. In the most recent test in November 2025 at 97,532 miles, the car passed with advisories for both nearside and offside front tyres being near the legal limit and showing uneven wear. This follows a period of relatively clean records between 2022 and 2024 where the vehicle presented no recorded defects at all. The mileage pattern is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per year. Between November 2023 and November 2024, the car covered 7,782 miles, while the subsequent year saw 10,082 miles recorded. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use rather than extreme use or long periods of neglect. The total distance of under 100,000 miles means the drivetrain and engine components have generally avoided the heavy wear typically associated with high-mileage engines. A buyer should inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the uneven tyre wear noted in the 2025 test often indicates alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. The failure in November 2022 for thin brake pads indicates that the owner previously waited until components were critical before replacement, though subsequent clean tests suggest the brakes have since been addressed. A physical check for corrosion on the chassis and sills remains necessary, although the record has not yet flagged structural rust, the age of the vehicle makes it susceptible to surface decay over time.
