2018 Mercedes-Benz Vito 1.6L Diesel · KT18 AFA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its recent testing history. The most recent MOT test on 30 May 2025 at 83,494 miles passed with no recorded defects, immediately following a failure just two miles prior. This pattern suggests that the owner is proactive in addressing non-compliance issues to ensure passing. The history indicates a vehicle that is maintained to a functional standard without any evidence of recurring mechanical degradation or structural failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical commercial use for this age, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per year. Between May 2023 at 79,917 miles and June 2024 at 80,690 miles, the vehicle covered under 800 miles, indicating a period of low usage. However, the mileage increased by nearly 3,000 miles in the year leading up to the latest test. This shift suggests the vehicle has returned to a regular operational schedule, which places expected but predictable wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. While the MOT record is clean of persistent advisories, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and brake components. Given the mileage and the nature of the Mercedes Vito, checking for premature wear on control arms or signs of binding calipers is prudent. The lack of recorded corrosion issues in the history suggests the structural integrity remains sound, but a chassis check should still verify the absence of surface rust often common in vans of this era.
