2016 Smart (mcc) Forfour 1.0L Petrol · DK10 ADS

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-11-28 at 114,254 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. Previous tests from 2024-12-03 (102,329 miles) and 2023-12-22 (88,895 miles) also passed without issues, though a failed test on 2023-12-21 (88,880 miles) noted no defects. This suggests the car has maintained compliance with safety standards over the past three years, with no recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns. The absence of advisories or critical failures in recent tests implies the previous owner prioritized regular maintenance, though the failed 2023 test may reflect administrative errors or minor non-critical issues. The vehicle’s mileage of 114,254 miles over 10 years equates to an average of 11,425 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. MOT records show consistent testing intervals, with no extended gaps between assessments. The 2022-12-23 test at 70,522 miles marked the earliest entry, followed by annual checks thereafter. This pattern suggests regular upkeep, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into specific maintenance practices. The 2023-12-21 failure, despite no recorded defects, raises questions about potential oversights, but the subsequent PASS in 2023-12-22 indicates resolution. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The exhaust system and brake components, including calipers and discs, warrant inspection for corrosion or wear, as these are common failure points in older vehicles. While no structural rust or emission issues were flagged, the 2023 test’s failure—though unexplained—highlights the need for a thorough pre-purchase check. The absence of tyre-related defects or advisories suggests adequate tread depth management, but visual checks for uneven wear or damage are still advisable. Overall, the MOT history reflects a well-maintained vehicle, but physical inspection remains critical to confirm its current mechanical state.
