2016 Mercedes-Benz GT 4.0L Petrol · LR16 UEE

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GT presents a flawless MOT record across five consecutive annual tests, with the most recent examination conducted on 3 October 2025 at 23,014 miles returning a completely clean pass. No defects, advisories, or failures have been recorded at any point in the vehicle's documented history. The maintenance trend is stable and exemplary, indicating consistent mechanical care and no emerging deterioration in safety-critical systems. The mileage accumulation pattern is notably low for a vehicle approaching eleven years of age. Between the first recorded test on 26 November 2021 at 10,837 miles and the most recent on 3 October 2025 at 23,014 miles, the vehicle covered approximately 12,177 miles over nearly four years, averaging roughly 3,044 miles annually during that window. The earlier years appear similarly restrained, with the car reaching just 10,837 miles by late 2021. This sub-2,500-mile annual average across the full recorded span suggests predominantly short-distance or occasional use, with the vehicle likely spending extended periods stationary between outings. Despite the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection focused on components that degrade with age and infrequent use rather than mileage alone. Tyre sidewall condition and date codes warrant close scrutiny, as rubber perishes over time regardless of tread depth. Brake discs and pads should be examined for surface corrosion and uneven wear patterns typical of a car that sits idle for prolonged periods. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers should be checked for perishing or weeping seals, as low-mileage vehicles are not immune to rubber deterioration. The exhaust system, fuel system, and all fluid seals should be inspected for dry rot or seepage caused by thermal cycling in a vehicle that rarely reaches full operating temperature on longer runs. A pre-purchase inspection by a marque specialist is advisable to verify the structural integrity of the subframes and suspension mounting points, which on a low-use GT may still be susceptible to corrosion if garaged in suboptimal conditions.
