2016 Mercedes-Benz Vito 1.6L Diesel · DA16 VDG

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz Vito presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 March 2026 at 89,330 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior test on 2 April 2025 at 73,968 miles also passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available history, indicating consistent upkeep by previous keepers. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old van. The records show 56,694 miles at the April 2023 test, rising to 73,968 by April 2025 and 89,330 by March 2026. That equates to roughly 8,900 miles per year, a modest figure suggesting lighter commercial use. The DVSA entry for 4 April 2023 lists both a fail and a pass on the same date at identical mileage with no defects recorded, which points to an administrative re-test rather than a genuine mechanical fault. The clean MOT trail gives no cause to suspect worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside corrosion, coil springs, and brake disc wear, as these items fall outside the scope of a pass-with-no-defects certificate. The low annual mileage means the Vito may have stood idle for periods, so check for perished rubber seals, flat-spotted tyres, and degraded fluid intervals before purchase.
