2016 Smart (mcc) Forfour 0.9L Petrol · KT16 MYH

The 2016 Smart ForFour presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 June 2025 at 59,248 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the full available history. Annual mileage has remained low for the vehicle's age. The record shows 31,968 miles at the 27 May 2021 test, rising to 37,847 by 13 June 2022, 44,354 by 9 June 2023, 51,469 by 4 June 2024, and 59,248 by June 2025. This equates to roughly 5,900 miles per year with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps, indicating steady light use. The DVSA data contains no advisories or failures at any stage, so the history alone gives no signal of deferred consumable replacement or structural neglect. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection despite the clean record. Low annual mileage combined with the car's ten-year age raises the risk of perished rubber components such as suspension bushes, door seals, and brake hoses that a static test bay may not expose. Standing periods can also encourage corrosion on brake discs and underbody structures even where the tester logged no defects. Verify the condition of tyres, wiper blades, and fluid levels against the stated mileages, and confirm the brake calipers are free from binding after the car has sat between tests. The MOT trail shows no recurring mechanical faults, but the absence of advisories does not waive the need for a hands-on check of suspension articulation and exhaust integrity before purchase.
