2010 Smart (mcc) Fortwo Coupe 1.0L Petrol · CT10 OHD

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status following the November 2025 test cycle. The DVSA record shows a pass on 28 November 2025 at 58,211 miles with no defects recorded, though the same date also logs a failure at identical mileage with no defects listed, indicating an administrative or presentation anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with four consecutive passes from December 2022 through November 2025 and no advisories or recorded wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity at any stage. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for a 2010 registration. The record charts 51,866 miles in December 2022, 53,926 in December 2023, 55,494 in November 2024, and 58,211 by November 2025, equating to roughly 2,100 miles per year over that span and circa 3,600 miles annually across the car's life. Such low accumulation suggests extended standing periods or short urban trips, with no rapid clusters or gaps that would imply missed servicing or hidden high-use phases. The sparse, defect-free ledger gives no evidence of skipped consumable replacement or deferred correction. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished record. Low mileage and long idle spells accelerate perishable degradation that MOT tests may not capture between visits, notably tyre sidewall cracking, seized handbrake mechanisms, and corroding brake calipers from disuse. The Smart Fortwo's rear engine layout and compact subframe warrant close checks for structural rust at sill mountings and suspension arm brackets, as moisture trapping during storage drives corrosion unseen at 58,211 miles. Given the twin November 2025 entries showing a failure and pass on the same day with zero defects, verify the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm the live test certificate and rule out a clerical duplicate. The owner clearly maintained statutory testing discipline, but the absence of advisories across sixteen years points to either meticulous care or tests conducted under lenient visual conditions rather than measured component wear.
