2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · LP65 WMO

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT test on 2026-02-17 at 201,281 miles, indicating it remains roadworthy. However, the maintenance trend has worsened over the past few years, with multiple advisories and a failed test in 2024-02-12. This suggests that the vehicle's upkeep has not been as thorough as it could be. The recorded mileage of 201,281 miles, accumulated over roughly 10 years, translates to a high annual mileage of approximately 20,128 miles. This is unusually high for its age, implying that the vehicle has been subjected to considerable wear and tear. Notable gaps in the mileage pattern are not evident, but the rapid accumulation of mileage between 2019-01-29 and 2026-02-17 is striking, with a 121,203-mile increase in just over seven years. The MOT history reveals several recurring faults that a buyer should inspect in person, including worn tyres, play in the track rod end ball joints, and an oil leak. The vehicle's suspension system has been flagged on multiple occasions, with slight play in the ball joints and a worn lower suspension arm. Furthermore, the central rear spare tyre has been defective on two separate occasions, indicating a possible issue with the vehicle's storage or maintenance. The buyer should also investigate the oil leak, which may be indicative of a more serious engine problem. A thorough inspection of the vehicle's structural integrity, including the brake system, is essential given the advisories on binding rear brakes in the past. The buyer should also check for any signs of corrosion or damage to the vehicle's bodywork, particularly around the rear track rod end ball joints.
