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

The vehicle is currently road‑worthy; the April 2026 MOT at 90,263 miles recorded a pass with no defects. Earlier concerns – front brake disc wear in 2025 and tyre edge wear in 2024 – have not re‑appeared, indicating a stabilising maintenance pattern. At eight years old the car has accumulated 90,263 miles, averaging roughly 11,300 miles per annum, which sits within normal usage for a city‑run Smart. The jump from 67,331 miles in April 2024 to 86,977 miles in April 2025 represents a 19,600‑mile increase in a single year, suggesting a period of more intensive driving, yet the subsequent rise to 90,263 miles by April 2026 is modest, implying a recent reduction in mileage. No significant gaps appear in the record; mileage entries are consistent with annual testing. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the front braking system, confirming disc thickness and pad wear remain within safe limits, as prior advisories flagged thin pads and modest disc wear. Inspection of all four tyres is essential; the 2024 rear‑tyre edge wear and the 2023 off‑side front tyre cracking hint at possible uneven wear or underlying suspension issues. A visual check of the windscreen washer system for proper fluid delivery is prudent, given the 2024 insufficiency note. Finally, a tactile survey of suspension bushes, coil springs, and any signs of corrosion on chassis or body panels will confirm that no latent structural concerns have developed since the last pass.
