Our Verdict
Avoid this vehicle unless major repairs are budgeted. Frequent MOT failures and high mileage indicate potential mechanical risks.
Negotiate aggressively given the high mileage and repeated failures. Insist on a full service history and independent mechanical inspection. Focus on brake systems (discs, pads, and calipers) and suspension components (leaf springs, ball joints). Check for rust on brake discs and verify tyre replacement records. Be wary of electrical faults like the engine MIL indicator and airbag warning lamps. Consider the vehicle's commercial use history, as Sprinters often see heavy duty cycles.
Diesel fuel economy is likely average for a 2.1L engine, with typical maintenance costs exacerbated by frequent brake and tyre replacements. Tax is £2,000 annually (van tax rate). Insurance group not specified, but commercial vehicles typically cost £1,000-£1,500/year. Expect £500-£800/year for routine maintenance, with potential for higher costs due to suspension and brake repairs. Estimated annual running cost: £2,500-£3,500.
Thoroughly check brake discs for rust and warping (noted in 2025 failure). Test suspension components (leaf springs, ball joints) for play or wear. Measure tyre tread depth and inspect for uneven wear patterns. Examine the engine MIL indicator circuitry and airbag warning lamp. Verify exhaust system for leaks or damage. Check wheel bearings for noise and play, particularly on the offside rear (noted in multiple MOTs). Inspect bodywork for corrosion around windscreen edges and mirrors.
This 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has accumulated 153,355 miles, exceeding average usage for its age. Multiple MOT failures since 2024 reveal recurring issues with brakes, tyres, and suspension. While it has passed recent inspections, the frequency of repairs suggests underlying reliability concerns.
No aggregate data available for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, but commercial vans of this era often require careful maintenance due to heavy usage patterns.
