2015 Mercedes-Benz GL 3.0L Diesel · BU65 AFO

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz GL presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent MOT test on 17 December 2025 at 80,515 miles which recorded no defects. The vehicle passed every subsequent annual examination from December 2022 onward, showing no escalating mechanical concerns across the three-year window. Recorded mileage rose from 53,536 miles at the 21 December 2022 test to 80,515 miles by December 2025, an average of roughly 9,000 miles per year against a lifetime mean near 7,320. The DVSA file is sparse and clean, with only one anomaly: a failed test on 13 December 2023 at 60,730 miles carrying no listed defects, immediately followed by a pass the next day at identical mileage. That pattern points to an administrative or process rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the keeper rectified it without delay. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's eleven-year age and mixed urban or motorway use. The MOT history flags no corrosion, exhaust emissions breaches, or structural integrity issues, so serious structural risk appears low from the record alone. Verify in person that the tyres, wiper blades, and other consumables match the clean advisory profile, since the tests logged no wear items. The previous owners sustained disciplined annual testing with no skipped intervals, which implies consistent basic upkeep rather than deferred maintenance.
