2020 MAN Etge 3.140 Electric · DG70 AAY

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-05-24 at 12,545 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. No advisories or failures were noted in the two recorded tests, suggesting the owner prioritized basic upkeep. However, the interval between the 2023-10-18 test (11,915 miles) and the latest assessment exceeds 18 months, which is beyond the standard annual MOT cycle. This gap may signal inconsistent servicing, though the absence of recorded issues does not confirm mechanical integrity. The vehicle’s mileage of 12,545 miles over six years equates to approximately 2,091 miles annually, significantly lower than average usage. This suggests either prolonged periods of inactivity or minimal driving, which can accelerate wear on components like batteries, fluids, and rubber seals. The MOT history shows no defects, but the sparse data—only two tests—limits insight into long-term trends. A buyer should verify if the low mileage aligns with the vehicle’s actual usage and check for signs of neglect, such as dry-rotted tyres or corroded underbody components. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension system, as low-mileage vehicles may develop hardened bushes or coil springs from inactivity. The braking system requires scrutiny, particularly for binding calipers or uneven brake disc wear, which can occur if the vehicle is rarely driven. Corrosion risks are heightened by the low mileage, so checking the exhaust system and body panels for rust is critical. Additionally, the battery’s age and condition should be assessed, as prolonged storage can degrade its performance. No structural issues were flagged in the MOT records, but the lack of recent tests means the vehicle’s current roadworthiness remains unverified.
