Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its recent testing history. The most recent inspection conducted on 10 June 2025 at 155,315 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car met all safety and environmental standards. This follows a successful test in January 2024, where the vehicle passed just three days after an initial failure, suggesting that any mechanical issues identified at that time were addressed promptly by the previous owner. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-used vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in records between July 2021 at 147,902 miles and January 2023 at 151,558 miles, during which the car covered only 3,400 miles. Since then, the usage has remained steady, covering nearly 4,000 miles over the last two years. This consistent mileage suggests regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which often helps preserve rubber seals and aged drivetrain components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the complex air suspension systems and bushings typical of the S-Class, as the MOT record does not detail specific advisories for these components. While the recent MOT passes are clean, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close look for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches. Given the brief failure in January 2024, verifying the condition of the brake discs and calipers would be advisable to ensure that the repairs made were comprehensive and not masking a recurring issue.
