AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Smart ForFour presents as roadworthy following the most recent MOT pass on 21 January 2026 at 67,893 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared every test that produced a result, showing no advisories or defects in the official record. A single failure on 20 January 2026 at the same mileage of 67,893 was logged with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault, with the car passing cleanly the next day. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,544 miles per year against the vehicle's 2017 build, a typical figure for this age of car. The records show 41,378 miles on 18 January 2023, rising to 58,310 by 1 February 2024, then 65,061 on 27 January 2025 and 67,893 at the January 2026 tests. The largest single-year gain was around 16,900 miles between early 2023 and early 2024, after which annual use dropped sharply to under 3,000 miles per year. The sparse, clean history gives little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. Given the absence of any flagged items across five years of testing, the buyer should still commission a physical inspection of standard wear components not always caught by MOT scrutiny. Suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc thickness, and underbody corrosion should be visually checked given the car's nine years. The 2023 to 2024 high-mileage spell warrants a look at drivetrain condition and tyre sidewall age. The January 2026 fail-with-no-defect entry should be confirmed on the DVSA portal to rule out a clerical error before purchase.
