2008 Mercedes-Benz Vito 2.1L Diesel · PO58 ADX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-23 at 80,909 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the same date shows a prior failure with 80,906 miles, though no defects were logged for either test. This suggests either a procedural error or a minor issue resolved between tests. Subsequent MOTs from 2023 to 2025 consistently passed with no defects, reinforcing a stable maintenance trend over the past three years. No recurring mechanical or structural faults are evident from the record. The vehicle’s mileage of 80,909 miles at 18 years old equates to approximately 4,495 miles annually, significantly lower than average for its age. This suggests either light usage or extended periods of inactivity, which could accelerate corrosion or fluid degradation. The MOT history shows no gaps longer than 12 months, with tests conducted annually, indicating consistent compliance. However, the low mileage may mask wear on components like suspension bushes or brake discs, which benefit from regular use. A buyer should inspect the underbody for rust, particularly around the chassis and wheel arches, given the low mileage and potential for stagnant fluids. Check suspension components, including coil springs and bushes, for signs of fatigue or wear. Test the braking system for uneven pad wear or caliper binding, as low mileage can sometimes lead to seized components. Verify that all MOT advisories from previous years—though not recorded here—were addressed, as unresolved issues could impact long-term reliability.
