The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-23 at 126,202 miles showed no defects, confirming a stable maintenance trend over the past 18 months. All prior tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed without issues, indicating consistent upkeep. The single failure in 2022-03-29 recorded no defects, suggesting either a procedural error or a minor issue resolved before retesting. No recurring mechanical or structural concerns are evident in the documented history. The mileage of 126,202 miles aligns with an average annual usage of 7,888 miles over 16 years, reflecting typical wear for the vehicle’s age. Gaps between tests are minimal, with no evidence of prolonged inactivity or excessive rapid mileage accumulation. The 2022-04-11 test at 118,361 miles to 2023-04-29 at 120,962 miles shows a 2,601-mile increase over 12 months, consistent with regular use. No anomalies in mileage progression suggest the vehicle has been driven steadily without periods of neglect. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, which are common wear points on this model. The absence of brake-related defects in recent tests is reassuring, but a visual check of brake discs and calipers for corrosion or uneven wear is recommended. The exhaust system and underbody should also be examined for rust, as older Mercedes-Benz models are prone to corrosion in harsh climates. No structural integrity issues are flagged, but a thorough pre-purchase inspection is advised to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing roadworthiness.
