2015 Smart (mcc) Forfour 1.0L Petrol · GV65 AEN

The 2026‑05‑26 MOT at 71,445 miles confirms the 2015 SMART FORFOUR is presently roadworthy, with no defects recorded. The successive tests from 2023‑12‑04 through 2026‑05‑26 show a stable maintenance record; after the 2023‑12‑04 failure the vehicle passed subsequent inspections without further defects, indicating that any previous suspension wear has been addressed or has not recurred. Covering roughly 6,500 miles per year over its 11‑year life, the mileage rises steadily from 16,897 miles in 2018‑11‑05 to 71,445 miles in 2026‑05‑26, with increments of 1,702 miles between the 2023‑12‑04 and 2026‑05‑26 tests, a pace consistent with regular use and no evidence of prolonged standing. Recurring examinations of the suspension arm ball joints in 2022‑11‑17 and 2023‑12‑04 flagged excessive wear on both near‑side front and off‑side front joints, suggesting that the suspension bushes and joints merit close inspection for play or looseness during a physical assessment. Brake disc wear and thin pads recorded at 48,824 miles in 2021‑11‑29, together with tyre wear noted at 27,784 miles in 2019‑11‑27, indicate that the braking system and tyre tread depth should be measured for remaining life, while the absence of structural rust advisories in recent tests points to acceptable chassis condition, though a visual inspection for corrosion on the inner sills and wheel arches remains advisable.
