2017 Mercedes-Benz GT 4.0L Petrol · 30 JD

This vehicle maintains a stable and exemplary roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT on 1 April 2026 at 6,437 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to September 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in peak mechanical condition without any recurring faults. The mileage is exceptionally low for a nine year old car, averaging roughly 715 miles per year. Between the October 2022 test at 4,957 miles and the April 2026 test at 6,437 miles, the car covered only 1,480 miles over three and a half years. Such low usage suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary, which is common for collector cars but introduces specific mechanical risks. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Brake discs can develop surface corrosion and calipers may seize when a car sits idle, so checking for binding brakes is essential. Rubber components, including tyre sidewalls and suspension bushes, can perish or crack over time due to age rather than wear. The lack of any recorded advisories across five tests suggests a high standard of preventative care. However, the low annual mileage means the engine oil and other fluids may be aged even if the mileage intervals have not been reached. Verifying the frequency of oil changes is recommended to ensure the engine has not suffered from long-term stagnation.
