2012 Smart Fortwo Passion MHD Auto 1.0L Petrol · OV12 ADZ

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the majority of its recent tests resulting in clean passes, including the most recent inspection on 7 April 2026. The only significant deviation occurred in March 2022, when the vehicle failed on a dangerous defect regarding a structural tear in the offside rear tyre, which was rectified immediately to achieve a pass on the same day. Aside from a minor advisory regarding the deterioration of the rear registration plate in 2025, the vehicle has shown no recurring mechanical faults or chronic advisories. The recorded mileage of 33,230 miles is low for a fourteen year old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,374 miles per year. This usage pattern indicates the vehicle has been used sparingly over its lifespan. Mechanically, this translates to lower cumulative wear on the drivetrain and engine components, although low-usage vehicles can exhibit different wear characteristics in rubber bushings and seals. Inspection should focus on the current condition of all tyres, specifically looking for signs of sidewall cracking or structural degradation similar to the failure recorded in 2022. During a test drive, the buyer should listen for any knocks or clunks from the suspension over uneven surfaces and feel for any hesitation or judder during gear transitions in the automated transmission. The deteriorated rear registration plate noted in 2025 should be checked to ensure it remains legible and compliant with current standards.
