MERCEDES-BENZ SPRINTER 315 PROGRESSIVE CDI2023 · 1.9L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 27 October 2025. While the initial test on that same day at 44,068 miles failed due to incorrect headlamp aim on both the nearside and offside front units, the issue was rectified immediately, resulting in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the owner is responsive to minor compliance failures to maintain legal road standards. At 44,068 miles over three years, this Sprinter has averaged approximately 14,700 miles per annum. This high mileage profile is consistent with light commercial or transit use, which typically places significant stress on drivetrain components and suspension bushings. The recorded mileage data is relatively sparse given the vehicle's age, but the clean history suggests the vehicle has not yet suffered from major mechanical failures or structural corrosion that often manifest in high-mileage vans. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. Given the mileage, a thorough check of the front control arm bushes, shock absorbers, and coil springs is essential to identify signs of premature fatigue. The MOT record does not flag any brake calipers or disc issues, but the buyer should manually inspect pad thickness and check for uneven wear patterns to ensure the braking system has not been consistently overloaded. Additionally, verifying the chassis for any signs of impact damage or stress is prudent, as the high mileage suggests frequent motorway or varied load cycles.
