2007 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.2L Diesel · YK57 AJY

The vehicle remains roadworthy as of the November 2025 MOT, passing without a failure and only noting general underside corrosion. Recurrent minor defects – chiefly anti‑roll bar bush wear and a historic brake‑balance advisory – have been recorded but never escalated to a fail, indicating a maintenance pattern that is stable rather than deteriorating. Mileage has accumulated to 245,905 mi over 19 years, averaging roughly 13,000 mi per annum, which is above the typical usage for a Sprinter of this age. The record shows a rapid increase between the January 2012 test at 83,634 mi and the December 2012 test at 145,712 mi, suggesting a period of intensive use. Subsequent increments are more gradual, with the odometer rising from 214,510 mi in December 2020 to 245,905 mi in November 2025, reflecting a consistent but not excessive mileage build‑up. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the rear anti‑roll bar linkages, where slight play in pins and bushes has been flagged repeatedly from 2014 through 2020. The offside rear inner tyre was reported as worn close to the legal limit in the January 2024 test, so tyre depth and uniformity must be verified. The 2012 brake‑balance advisory warrants a current brake inspection to confirm proper adjustment. Finally, the windscreen has sustained several small damages across multiple years; a thorough visual check for cracks or chips is advisable, as is a closer look at the noted general underside corrosion for any progression.
