2017 Fiat Swift 2.3L Diesel · YY17 ABN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a recent successful inspection. Although the most recent test on 29 July 2025 at 49,938 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a failure just four days prior with no recorded defects. This anomaly suggests a potential administrative error or a minor non-compliance that was rectified immediately before the re-test. Since 2022, the car has maintained a clean record with no advisory notes, indicating a consistent level of mechanical upkeep. The mileage pattern is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per annum. Data shows a steady progression from 31,272 miles in May 2022 to 34,255 miles in July 2023, followed by a more significant increase of 15,683 miles leading to the July 2025 test at 49,938 miles. This low annual usage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of rubber-based parts perishing or brake calipers seizing due to long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to degradation in low-mileage cars. Check the brake discs for surface pitting and inspect the suspension bushes for cracking, which occurs with infrequent use. Given the lack of structural advisories in the history, the integrity of the chassis appears sound, but a visual check for underbody corrosion where moisture collects remains advisable. Verify the tyres for age-related cracking, as low tread often masks perished rubber that has lost grip.
