2015 Smart Fortwo 0.9L Petrol · WM65 UJG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a shift from perfect passes to the onset of mechanical wear. In the March 2026 test at 66,291 miles, the tester flagged three specific advisories that suggest the maintenance trend is beginning to degrade. While the car passed the test, the appearance of worn tyres and thinning brake discs marks a departure from the previously clean records seen in the preceding years. The mileage pattern shows a significant increase in usage over the last two. Between December 2022 at 8,966 miles and April 2024 at 29,467 miles, the vehicle covered relatively low distances. However, the interval between April 2024 and March 2026 saw an accumulation of 36,824 miles, which more than triples the annual average of roughly 6,000 miles typical for this car. This surge in mileage explains the sudden emergence of consumable wear issues that were absent during the lower mileage years. A buyer must prioritise inspecting the front suspension and alignment, as the uneven wear on the inner edge of the offside front tyre indicates a geometry issue or worn suspension bushes. The nearside front tyre is also nearing the legal limit, necessitating immediate replacement soon. Given that the front brake discs were already noted as worn in the March 2026 report, the thickness of the pads and discs should be measured to ensure they do not require immediate replacement following purchase.
