2006 Mercedes-Benz ML 6.2L Petrol · BS 2200

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in its most recent test in November 2025 at 141,802 miles. This result indicates that any previous mechanical or safety-related issues have been addressed. While the history shows a failure in late 2024, the immediate retest just four days later at the same mileage suggests a minor defect quickly rectified, implying the owner is proactive in rectifying faults rather than allowing the vehicle to remain grounded. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle of twenty years' age, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum. Between October 2022 and November 2023, the vehicle covered 3,390 miles, representing a period of lower usage. However, the jump of 5,153 miles between November 2023 and December 2024 shows a slight increase in activity. This steady interval suggests the car is used regularly enough to prevent excessive stagnation, which often benefits rubber seals and brake components, though the overall mileage remains moderate for the era. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and the suspension components, given the age and model of this Mercedes-Benz. Although the MOT records show no current advisories, older vehicles of this generation are prone to corrosion on the subframe and wish arm bushes. Check for signs of mounting rust on the chassis and wear on the coil springs, as these are the first points of failure on high-mile SUVs. The clean recent history suggests the braking and exhaust systems are currently in good order, but a manual check of brake calipers for fluid leaks remains necessary to ensure no new issues have developed since the last November test.
