2002 Mercedes Hymer 2.7L Diesel · PL52 UBN

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, following a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on 17 December 2025 at 103,391 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the vehicle suffered failures in 2023 and 2024, the immediate passes in subsequent re-tests suggest an owner who is proactive in rectifying MOT-related faults. The mileage profile is notably low for a 24-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,300 miles per year. Data shows consistent but light usage, with 2,429 miles covered between November 2023 and December 2024, and another 3,744 miles recorded by late December 2025. This low annual accumulation generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the long intervals between tests can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber-based components and fluids if the vehicle sits for extended periods without movement. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in November 2023 and December 2024, as the record does not specify the exact parts replaced. Given the age of this Hymer, a thorough check of the structural integrity of the chassis and frame is essential, as corrosion is common in vehicles of this era regardless of mileage. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and check the brake calipers for seizing, as low mileage does not prevent the age-related degradation of hydraulic and rubber systems.
