2015 Smart Fortwo 1.0L Petrol · WD65 JKX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in May 2026 with 25,532 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record indicates a shift toward minor consumable issues rather than major mechanical failure. While the latest test flagged only a defective nearside wiper blade, previous entries show recurring minor faults, suggesting that the owner addresses basic safety items as they arise during testing. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,300 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between September 2022 and October 2023, where the car covered only 898 miles in thirteen months, followed by a more active period of 7,157 miles between May 2025 and May 2026. This low-frequency usage often leads to age-related degradation of rubber components and fluids rather than mechanical wear from high-mileage driving. A buyer must specifically inspect the condition of the tyres, as the October 2023 test at 12,797 miles flagged all four tyres for perishing and cracking. Despite the low mileage, rubber dries out over time, which can cause structural failure regardless of tread depth. Additionally, the 2025 report noted a fluctuating nearside rear service brake at 18,375 miles. This often results from surface corrosion on the discs when the vehicle sits for long periods, so a physical check of brake disc condition and caliper operation is required.
