2010 Mercedes Sprinter 3.0L Diesel · US60 FAR

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT pass on 31 October 2025 at 72,081 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has passed its last two annual inspections without any recorded defects. While the history shows failures in 2023 and 2024, the data indicates the previous owners were proactive in rectifying identified faults to bring the Sprinter back to a passing standard. At 16 years of age, the recorded mileage of 72,081 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. This low usage pattern suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but long periods of standing can lead to specific secondary issues. Between the October 2023 and October 2024 tests, the vehicle covered 3,586 miles, while it covered only 2,509 miles in the most recent year. This consistent, low-interval travel suggests the vehicle is used for light tasks rather than heavy-duty commercial transport. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the risks associated with low-mileage high-age vehicles, particularly rubber degradation and fluid integrity. Despite the clean recent records, suspension bushes, split boots, and tyre compounds may perish or crack due to age rather than wear. Given the failures in October 2023 and 2024, a close look at the brake discs for surface corrosion and the calipers is necessary, as low-use vehicles often suffer from seized braking components if not driven regularly. The underbody of a Sprinter from this era also requires a thorough check of the chassis for structural integrity to ensure no hidden corrosion has compromised the frame over its years of service.
