2023 MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER 315 PROGRESSIVE CDI1.9L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy based on the most recent MOT pass on 19 December 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the tester flagged two advisories regarding the nearside and offside rear tyres being worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. These are common consumable issues, but they indicate the vehicle is due for immediate tyre replacement to maintain safe grip and legality. The mileage is exceptionally high for a three-year-old vehicle. Reaching 108,539 miles by December 2025 suggests an average annual usage of over 36,000 miles. This level of rapid accumulation typically points to heavy commercial use, likely motorway-based, which puts accelerated stress on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking systems compared to a standard utility vehicle. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the rear axle alignment and suspension geometry. The specific mention of edge wear on both rear tyres often suggests tracking issues or worn suspension components rather than simple tread depletion. Given the high mileage, the condition of the brake discs and pads should be verified, as heavy use often leads to premature thinning or warping. Check for signs of chassis corrosion and inspect the service history to ensure oil changes kept pace with the high mileage. While the MOT record is clean of major mechanical failures, the sheer volume of miles means the vehicle is entering a phase where major wear-and-tear items typically require replacement. Focus on the state of the clutch and the smoothness of the gearbox during a test drive.
