2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · RM62 ARM

The 2025‑08‑16 MOT at 141,300 miles confirms the 2012 Mercedes‑Benz Sprinter remains roadworthy, with the tester recording zero defects and no advisory notes. All five tests since August 2022 have resulted in a pass, indicating a stable maintenance trend and consistent compliance with DVSA standards. The mileage has risen gradually from 137,318 miles in August 2022 to 141,300 miles in August 2025, an average increase of roughly 1,300 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s age of 14 years and a typical annual usage of about 10,000 miles. No large gaps appear in the record; each test follows the previous one within a year, and the 2022 failure was followed by a clean pass the same day, suggesting the issue was remedied before the next inspection. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brake calipers move freely and that the brake discs show even wear, and look for any signs of structural rust or corrosion on the chassis and wheel arches. The previous failure, though defect‑free on the subsequent test, points to a focus on the braking system and any potential exhaust or structural weaknesses that may have been addressed.
