This 2016 Smart has 8 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 6,473 miles. However, a significant mileage anomaly and very low usage over 10 years raise serious concerns about its true condition and history.
The vehicle shows very low usage, averaging 2,683 miles/year, with a critical anomaly: a 1,030-mile increase between May 2022 and May 2023, indicating potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 27,817 miles over 10 years (Jan 2016 to May 2026).
- Critical mileage anomaly: 1,030-mile increase between May 2022 (14,438 mi) and May 2023 (15,468 mi).
- Very low annual usage: 2,683 miles/year suggests long periods of inactivity or potential issues.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
- Perfect MOT pass record: 8 consecutive passes with no failures or dangerous defects.
- 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating: Excellent safety features for a 2016 SMART.
- Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until May 2027, offering peace of mind for two years.
