2011 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · LX11 AFJ

The 2024‑01‑31 MOT at 260,709 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy at the time of testing and that the maintenance record shows a stable trend after the 2023 failure. Mileage accumulation has been steady since the early 2010s, rising from 25,041 miles in 2012 to 260,709 miles by early 2024, a gain of roughly 235,668 miles over twelve years, or about 19,600 miles per year; the jump from 2012 to 2013 (25,041 to 52,539) and the incremental increases of 10,000‑plus miles in 2023 and 2024 indicate consistent usage rather than long periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the steering column top bearing for wear, verify the integrity of the offside rear leaf spring and surrounding suspension bushes, examine brake calipers for binding and disc condition, assess tyre tread depth, and look for any signs of structural rust or corrosion that could compromise safety.
