2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · FJ67 UEY

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no recorded defects across its five most recent MOT tests. The latest examination on 6 August 2025 at 190,053 miles returned a clean pass with no advisories, confirming the vehicle cleared its annual test without fault for the fourth consecutive year. Annual mileage sits at roughly 21,100 miles, well above typical light-commercial averages for a nine-year-old van. The records show consistent annual accumulation: 138,155 miles in March 2021, rising to 153,107 by August 2022, 164,889 by August 2023, 178,092 by August 2024, and 190,053 by August 2025. A 17-month gap separates the March 2021 and August 2022 tests, but the mileage progression remains linear with no abrupt jumps or standing periods. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, listing no advisories at any stage. A clean MOT sheet does not exempt the buyer from physical inspection. At 190,000 miles the Sprinter's suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs will carry substantial cyclical fatigue even without tester flags. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories is favourable, yet high-mileage Mercedes diesel vans commonly develop underbody rust and worn steering joints between tests. Verify the service history independently and inspect the front subframe, rear spring mounts, and brake caliper operation on a ramp. Check tyre sidewalls for uneven wear that hints at worn tracking or suspension play. The record implies disciplined test preparation by prior keepers, but no MOT advisory means only that the van met the minimum standard on the day.
