MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER2014 · 2.1L Diesel

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT pass on 28 January 2026 at 98,718 miles was achieved with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed a test two days prior on 26 January 2026, the record shows no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a clerical error or a minor issue resolved immediately. The mileage pattern is consistent with light to moderate commercial use for a twelve year old van. Between November 2022 and January 2026, the odometer moved from 97,438 to 98,718 miles. This indicates the vehicle covered only 1,280 miles over three years, which is exceptionally low. Such prolonged periods of inactivity often lead to specific degradation issues regardless of the clean MOT record. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to deterioration during long periods of standing. Check for perishing rubber seals, flat spots on the tyres, and potential seizure of brake calipers or sticking sliders. The absence of advisories over the last four tests is positive, but the lack of mileage suggests the engine has not been run under sustained load recently. Inspect the underside for surface corrosion and check the fluid levels and condition. While the DVSA records show no structural failures or suspension wear, a vehicle that sits idle for years can develop hidden moisture issues in the exhaust system or battery degradation. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes occurred regardless of the low mileage.
