2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · KN12 VPK

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass on 3 June 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories. This lack of flagged issues suggests the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards for several years. The mileage is typical for a 2012 model, averaging roughly 11,896 miles per year. The record shows a steady accumulation of distance, moving from 149,228 miles in May 2023 to 166,549 miles by June 2025. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest misuse or neglect. The MOT history is unusually clean for a commercial vehicle of this age and mileage. The absence of any recorded advisories regarding corrosion, suspension bushes, or brake wear is rare for a fourteen year old Sprinter. While the record shows failures in May 2024 and May 2025, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative or minor issues resolved immediately. A buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and underbody. The DVSA records do not capture everything, and structural rust is a common failure point for this chassis that may not have been flagged if the vehicle was cleaned prior to testing. Focus on the condition of the brake discs and the integrity of the suspension components to ensure the lack of MOT advisories reflects actual mechanical health rather than a lenient testing regime.
