2017 Mercedes-Benz Vito 111 CDI Heavy oil · GGZ 2074

As a 1598cc diesel, this Vito is designed for efficiency, though running costs will depend heavily on annual mileage and load weight. Tax and insurance groups for the 111 CDI variant are generally moderate for a Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle, but you should obtain a specific quote based on your postcode.

Maintenance costs for Mercedes-Benz vans can be higher than for budget competitors, particularly for specialist components. You should budget for regular servicing and potential wear-and-tear items like brake pads and diesel particulate filter (DPF) maintenance if the vehicle is used for short, urban trips.

While the MOT history shows no recorded defects for most tests, the failure at 72,155 miles is the most important recent data point. Ask for the specific reason for that failure—whether it was related to lighting, tyres, brakes, or emissions—to ensure the repair was thorough.

Additionally, inspect the underside of the vehicle for any signs of corrosion or leaks. Given the mileage, check the condition of the drive belts and the cooling system. Ensure all electrical components, including the headlights and indicators, are functioning correctly, as these are common points of failure in older commercial vans.
