2009 Smart (mcc) Fortwo Coupe 0.7L Petrol · GF09 CKP

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a worsening condition regarding suspension and braking system components. While the most recent test on August 22 2025 at 61,165 miles passed, it flagged both front tyres as reaching the legal limit with significant inner edge wear. This follows a pattern of recurring tyre issues noted in 2023 and 2024, suggesting a persistent alignment or geometry fault that has not been professionally addressed. At 17 years old, this 2009 Smart Fortwo has exceptionally low mileage, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. The data shows consistent but low-interval usage, with only 2,918 miles driven between February 2024 and August 2024, and just 1,000 miles between August 2024 and August 2025. This low usage often correlates with the accelerated degradation of rubber components and metal due to environmental exposure, which explains the corrosion issues identified in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and rear braking lines. The record repeatedly noted corrosion on both front coil springs and a worn offside strut top mount between February 2024 and August 2024. Furthermore, the offside rear brake pipe was flagged for corrosion in two consecutive 2024 tests, despite being covered in grease which may mask the extent of the metal line. The persistent inner edge wear on the front tyres necessitates a professional wheel alignment and an inspection of control arm bushes to prevent further premature tyre failure.
