2021 Mercedes-Benz Vito 119 Sport CDI Auto 1.9L Diesel · WM70 XAB

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status having passed its most recent MOT test in March 2026 at 74,258 miles with no recorded defects. This represents a stable maintenance trend where the owner has proactively addressed recurring issues identified in previous testing cycles. While the history shows a pattern of reactive repairs, the most recent clean sheet indicates that the vehicle is currently being maintained to a functional standard for road use. The mileage profile reflects high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 15,000 miles per year over the five-year period. A significant surge in usage is evident between March 2024 and March 2025, where the vehicle covered 30,065 miles in just twelve months. This rapid accumulation is consistent with long-distance commercial or heavy motorway use, which places accelerated stress on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems compared to lower mileage examples. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension and alignment geometry due to the recurring inner-edge tyre wear recorded in the March 2024 failure and the subsequent March 2025 tests. The persistent failure of front tyres suggests either a lingering tracking issue, worn control arms, or failing ball joints that have not been fully rectified. Additionally, the state of the windscreen and wiper blades should be verified, as these were flagged as failing in previous tests, indicating neglect of minor peripheral maintenance. Given the high mileage and the nature of the vehicle, the brake discs and calipers should be inspected for signs of uneven wear or binding. While the record does not highlight structural corrosion or exhaust failures, the high annual mileage necessitates a close check of the chassis for fluid leaks and component-related fatigue. The vehicle appears to have been a workhorse, and the history of consumable wear is the primary area of concern for a prospective owner.
