2016 Mercedes-Benz Vito 1.6L Diesel · AV66 ABX

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 14 October 2025 at 122,782 miles with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any listed advisories or failures for mechanical defects. The absence of flagged issues in the latest test suggests the vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition. The mileage accumulation is high for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 12,278 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between May 2023 and July 2024, where the odometer rose from 81,571 miles to 99,903 miles in just over a year. A further 22,879 miles were added between July 2024 and October 2025. This high-mileage profile typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension systems. While the MOT record is remarkably clean, the lack of recorded advisories over several years is unusual for a high-mileage commercial vehicle. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for wear that may not have reached a failure threshold but is expected at 122,000 miles. Particular attention should be paid to the chassis and underbody for corrosion, as the MOT history does not provide a detailed breakdown of structural integrity. The record shows two instances where the vehicle failed and passed on the same day, specifically on 10 May 2023 and 28 June 2024. Because the DVSA record lists no specific defects for these failures, they likely related to minor administrative errors or simple consumables. Regardless, a manual check of the tyre tread depths and brake pad thickness is recommended to ensure the previous owner maintained the vehicle's consumables in line with its high usage.
