AI verdict AVOID 34/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2010 Smart has 15 MOT tests on record with a 87% pass rate and 14,075 miles. This fundamental discrepancy makes the vehicle's provenance and roadworthiness unverifiable.

The vehicle's MOT history shows a 16-year gap from 2013 to 2014, directly contradicting the provided DVLA data of a valid MOT until 2026-10-30.

Things to check

  • Critical 16-year MOT history gap from 2013-2014 directly contradicts DVLA data.
  • Mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, showing very low usage (3,153 mi/yr) with a 16-year gap.
  • First MOT test on 2013-06-20 is missing from the provided MOT history.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2022): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • No specific green flags can be identified due to the critical 16-year MOT history gap.
