Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement following a minor mechanical failure. The most recent MOT conducted in September 2025 at 120,827 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the owner addressed previous lighting and electrical issues. This marks a positive shift from the failure in October 2024, where incorrect indicator colours and a non-functional side repeater required immediate rectification before the subsequent re-test. The mileage history is consistent with a 13-year-old van, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per year. Between October 2023 and October 2024, the vehicle covered 11,091 miles, which represents a standard usage pattern for this type. The subsequent 11,069 miles recorded prior to the 2025 test shows continued, regular use. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to seal degradation and brake corrosion in older Mercedes. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and exhaust mounting points as flagged in earlier tests. The 2023 test identified a noisy nearside front wheel bearing and a loose exhaust silencer, while the 2022 record noted a defective exhaust mounting and a worn offside front tyre. While these appear to have been managed, the previous mention of uneven tyre wear suggests potential issues with wheel alignment or worn suspension bushes. Verifying the current exhaust system for further structural corrosion and ensuring the wheel bearing remains free of play is essential before purchase.
