2017 Mercedes-Benz Vito 1.6L Diesel · EO67 OHA

This Mercedes-Benz Vito demonstrates a consistent roadworthiness record over the past five annual MOT tests, all passing without defects or advisories. The most recent inspection on 2026-01-28, at 80,658 miles, confirms no outstanding issues, though the vehicle is now approaching its next mandatory test in January 2027. The absence of recurring faults suggests the car has been maintained at a basic level, though no evidence of proactive servicing or component replacements is visible in the MOT history. Buyers should note that while the record is clean, the lack of advisories does not imply thorough servicing—only that the vehicle passed the minimum legal standards at each test. The mileage progression of approximately 8,962 miles per year aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The recorded mileage increases steadily from 41,056 miles in January 2022 to 80,658 miles in January 2026, indicating consistent use without extended periods of neglect. There are no gaps longer than 12 months between tests, which is standard for annual MOTs, though the absence of service records means critical intervals for fluid changes, suspension components, or drivetrain maintenance cannot be confirmed. Given the clean MOT history, an in-person inspection should prioritise high-wear areas that are not routinely checked in standard MOT tests. Focus on the suspension system—coil springs, bushes, and dampers—where excessive wear or corrosion could compromise handling without immediate MOT failure. The braking system, particularly rear calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or uneven wear, as these issues often develop gradually. Structural integrity is also worth assessing, especially around wheel arches, subframes, and the exhaust system, where corrosion can weaken components over time. While the MOT record shows no failures, these areas are prone to deterioration that may not be visible without closer examination.
