This 2018 Smart has 6 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 20,617 miles. The single failure for a tyre pressure monitoring system in 2021 also warrants careful investigation.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,146 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 8-year history.
Things to check
- Oct 2021: Failed MOT for a malfunctioning Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
- Oct 2021, Oct 2022, Oct 2023, Oct 2024: Recurring advisories for worn tyres on all four corners.
- Oct 2023: Offside Rear Tyre had a nail in it, indicating poor tyre maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent low mileage (4,146 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- No major structural failures or recurring safety-critical defects.
- Recent MOT pass in October 2025 with no immediate retest concerns.
