2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 315 Progressive CDI 1.9L Diesel · KW70 VUX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test on 17 April 2025 at 50,273 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for a nearside front side repeater. While the current mechanical status appears stable, the previous records indicate that the owner frequently only addressed faults once they triggered an MOT failure, rather than performing preventative maintenance during scheduled service intervals. At 50,273 miles over five years, the Sprinter has averaged approximately 10,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical light-commercial usage for this class. There is a significant gap in data between the December 2023 test at 35,810 miles and the January 2024 test at 35,832 miles, showing only 22 miles driven in that month. This suggests periods of stationary use, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components and minor corrosion on brake discs. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system and suspension components during a physical inspection. The December 2023 failure highlighted that all four brake pads were either at at the wear indicator or wearing thin, and the January 2024 advisory noted the brake pedal surface wearing smooth. This often indicates uneven wear or a failure to replace discs alongside pads. Furthermore, the report of an offside hole in the central part of the body recorded in late 2023 requires a close structural inspection to ensure that hidden corrosion has not progressed to compromise the integrity of the chassis or floor pans.
