2018 Mercedes-Benz V 2.1L Diesel · GU67 AEB

The vehicle presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 9 March 2026 at 120,168 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior tests show consistent clean results. The only blemish is a failure on 28 February 2025 at 116,860 miles, yet the record lists no defects; this points to an administrative or documentation anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Overall, the MOT data indicates no worsening condition and no recurring advisories across the timeline. At approximately eight years old, the Mercedes-Benz V has covered 120,168 miles, averaging 15,021 miles per year, which is high for its age and suggests sustained use. The mileage progression shows 107,062 miles on 3 November 2023, rising to 116,790 by 28 January 2025, then 120,168 by March 2026. A gap exists between the late-2023 and early-2025 tests, with the 2025 examination falling roughly three months outside the annual cycle. Recent accumulation slowed to about 3,200 miles over the final year. The sparse record contains no advisories, implying previous owners addressed wear items before they triggered tester comments. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of high-mileage mechanical and structural components despite the clean MOT trail. Examine suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, measure brake disc thickness and caliper operation, and check subframes for corrosion. The drivetrain has absorbed considerable load; assess gearbox and differential condition. The unexplained 2025 failure warrants scrutiny of its paperwork to confirm no hidden rectification. Given the mileage, consumables such as tyres and wiper blades may have been changed opportunistically, but verify their current state.
