2009 Mercedes Unknown 3.0L Diesel · UT02 ABT

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 19 May 2025 at 111,396 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This streak of perfect records over the last five years indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety-related issues before they could trigger a test failure. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. Between January 2021 at 65,111 miles and May 2025 at 111,396 miles, the car covered 46,285 miles, showing steady use rather than long periods of stagnation or sudden bursts. The 12,207-mile gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests suggests a regular driving habit, which generally helps prevent the seizing of brakes or the degradation of rubber components due to inactivity. While the digital record is flawless, a buyer must still perform a physical inspection of common age-related failure points for a Mercedes of this era. The absence of advisories for corrosion or suspension wear in the records is encouraging, but the chassis and subframe areas should be manually checked for structural rust that testers may have missed. The buyer should also verify the condition of the shock absorbers and control arm bushes, as these often perish due to age regardless of a clean MOT history.
