2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · KL19 FGU

The 2019 Mercedes‑Benz Sprinter passed its May 2026 MOT at 136,811 miles with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness. The maintenance trend is stable, as the two preceding tests in 2025 and 2024 also showed no faults after the 2023 repair that addressed the rack play and tyre cut. Mileage accumulation is high for a seven‑year‑old van, averaging about 19,500 miles per year. The record shows a low‑usage period from 2022 to early 2023 (39,642 miles to 76,965 miles) followed by rapid growth: 119,031 miles by April 2024, 127,742 miles by May 2025 and 136,811 miles by May 2026, indicating increased annual usage in the last two years. A buyer should inspect the rack for any remaining play or worn suspension bushes, verify that the windscreen mounting is secure and free of cracks, and check the condition of the off‑side front windscreen glass. Examination of the tyres is essential – the 2023 failure noted a deep cut and the 2022 test recorded edge wear, so current tread depth and sidewall integrity must be confirmed. Also assess brake discs, pads and calipers for binding or excessive wear, and look for any structural rust around the chassis rails and suspension mounting points. Given the high annual mileage, expect accelerated wear on consumables such as tyres, wiper blades and brake components, but the recent flawless MOT suggests no immediate serious mechanical risk. Confirm that any previous repairs were carried out to manufacturer standards and that the vehicle has been maintained regularly to mitigate the higher wear rate.
