MERCEDES-BENZ SL2016 · 3.0L PETROL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 25 February 2026 at 42,783 miles passed with no defects or advisories. This follows two years of clean records in 2024 and 2025, indicating that the mechanical and safety systems are currently operating within manufacturer parameters without recurring failures or testing failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,278 miles per year. Data shows a consistent usage pattern without significant gaps or rapid accumulation. Between February 2022 and February 2026, the vehicle recorded 16,059 miles, maintaining a steady increase of roughly 4,000 miles per annual test cycle. This low-frequency usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it increases the risk of degradation in rubber components and fluids due to stationary periods. The only recorded issue in the history occurred in February 2023 at 30,622 miles, where the tester flagged both nearside and offside front inner tyres as worn close to the legal limit with edge wear. This suggests a potential alignment issue or suspension bushing fatigue at that time, though no such faults have returned in the subsequent three tests. A buyer should still inspect the current tyres for uneven wear and check the age of the rubber components. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should also focus on brake corrosion on the discs and caliper seals, as infrequently used vehicles often suffer from surface rust and seized pistons.
