2007 Mercedes-Benz Vito 3.0L Diesel · RF57 XWM

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably consistent maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 24 February 2026 at 164,080 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This follows four consecutive passes dating back to 2022, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have been maintained to a standard that prevents recurring failures. The mileage pattern is exceptionally stable for a 19-year-old van, averaging approximately 8,600 miles per year. Between January 2022 at 142,546 miles and the February 2026 test at 164,080 miles, the vehicle covered 21,534 miles at a steady rate of roughly 5,400 miles annually. This consistent accumulation suggests regular use, which often prevents the degradation of components associated with long periods of standing or sudden high-intensity commercial use. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must perform a physical inspection focusing on common wear points for a Vito of this age. Priority should be given to checking the structural integrity for corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points, as these areas are prone to hidden rust that may not always trigger a failure. One should also inspect the suspension bushes and front control arms for tearing, as these components often degrade at high mileages regardless of a clean test record.
