2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 314 Progressive CDI 2.1L Diesel · WR21 USP

The vehicle passed its latest MOT on 11 June 2026 at 166,927 miles. Both the 2024 and 2026 tests recorded windscreen chips as advisories, with the 2024 entry noting a "big chip" and the 2026 entry a "stone chip". These recurring minor defects show no progression to failure but indicate consistent exposure to road debris. All tests passed without critical faults, confirming stable roadworthiness despite the ongoing windscreen issues. The Sprinter has covered 33,385 miles annually since 2021. Between the August 2024 (99,581 miles) and June 2025 (128,102 miles) tests, it accumulated 28,521 miles in ten months. The subsequent year added 38,825 miles to reach 166,927 miles by June 2026. This high annual mileage reflects heavy commercial use, significantly increasing wear on suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components. No gaps in MOT testing exist, but the rapid mileage growth demands scrutiny of high-stress areas. A buyer must inspect the windscreen for chip expansion or cracks, as repeated damage suggests ongoing exposure to rough conditions. Check suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers for wear or binding. High mileage elevates risks of exhaust corrosion, structural rust, or worn brake discs. Verify all fluid levels and exhaust integrity, as these systems degrade faster under intensive use. While the MOT shows no major defects, the mileage pattern warrants detailed mechanical checks beyond the recorded advisories.
