2018 Smart (mcc) Fortwo 1.0L Petrol · LS18 FGA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 9 March 2026 at 135,224 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently met standards without recorded defects over the last two years. While the record shows failures in both 2024 and 2026, the immediate passes following these tests indicate that the owner addressed identified faults promptly to maintain legal road use. The mileage profile is high for an eight-year-old Smart Fortwo, averaging approximately 17,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent and rapid accumulation between tests, with 13,023 miles covered between the March 2024 and March 2025 tests, and another 16,848 miles covered between March 2025 and 2026. This level of usage suggests the vehicle likely sees significant motorway use, which places specific demands on the drivetrain, turbo, and suspension components compared to lower-mileage examples. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking system, as the high mileage accelerates wear on coil springs, control arm bushes, and shocks. Given the previous failures that resulted in immediate passes, check for signs of binding brake calipers or thinning brake discs. The chassis should also be inspected for corrosion, particularly around the mounting points and exhaust system, as high-mileage cycles often accelerate the degradation of structural integrity over time.
