2021 MERCEDES-BENZ ESPRINTER PROGRESSIVEElectric

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, following a clean MOT pass on 30 September 2025 at 23,202 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite a minor failure just four days prior to that successful test. The failure at 23,197 miles resulted from a split nearside front outer drive shaft joint CV boot, which was clearly rectified to allow the vehicle to pass the re-test with no further defects. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old van, averaging approximately 4,640 miles per year. Between the September 2024 test at 18,986 miles and the September 2025 test, the vehicle covered 4,216 miles. This consistent annual usage suggests light commercial or short-distance use, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. However, low-mileage vehicles can lead to the degradation of rubber components or corrosion on brake discs if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods between journeys. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the nearside front drive area to ensure the replacement CV boot is fitted correctly and free of grease leakage. Given the low mileage, the focus should shift from mileage-related wear to age-related issues, specifically checking for surface pitting on brake discs and inspecting the condition of suspension bushes. The record shows no history of structural corrosion or recurring mechanical-related failures, indicating the chassis has remained well-maintained throughout its short life.
