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

This 2014 Smart has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 8,723 miles. The vehicle's past safety record and inconsistent usage make it a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows a normal average of 6,710 miles/year until Dec 2020, but a significant jump to 32,331 miles in just 9 months (Jun 2019), followed by extremely low annual usage (e.g., 3,281 miles in 2022-2023).

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Mar 2025): Stop lamp(s) remains on when the brakes are released all (4.3.2 (a) (iii))
  • DANGEROUS defect: Engine mounting damaged (Jun 2019) — a critical safety failure.
  • DANGEROUS defect: Brakes failed (Dec 2021) — a major safety concern.
  • Recurring Tyres: 11 advisories (2018, 2019, 2024) — persistent wear pattern.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-29 — current roadworthiness confirmed.
  • No recent MOT failures — last failure was in March 2025.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory post-2020 — no recent anomalies.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating: 5/5 stars (2022) — excellent safety credentials for its age.
