MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER2016 · 2.1L Diesel

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of passes over the last four years. The most recent test on 3 December 2025 at 140,034 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This suggests the vehicle is currently maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without immediate mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is high for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 14,000 miles per year. A significant increase in usage occurred between November 2023 and November 2024, where the odometer rose from 97,418 to 122,220 miles. This jump of nearly 25,000 miles in a single year indicates a period of heavy commercial use, which typically accelerates wear on the drivetrain and suspension. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no recorded advisories for tyres, brakes, or corrosion across multiple tests. While this implies a diligent maintenance regime, the lack of any flagged wear on a high-mileage Sprinter is rare. The failure on 15 November 2024, which was resolved within ten days for the 25 November pass, lacks specific defect data in this record but shows the owner acted quickly to rectify the issue. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear components that may not have been flagged by a tester. Specifically, check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade under the heavy loads associated with this mileage. Inspect the brake discs for thinning and check the chassis for any signs of structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and wheel arches, which are common failure points for this model.
