2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · WU68 DDA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend has shifted from a clean record to one showing emerging braking system issues. The most recent test on 20 October 2025 at 29,449 miles resulted in a pass, but the tester flagged both the nearside and offside front brake discs as worn, pitted, or scored. This indicates a decline in the condition of the braking surfaces compared to previous years. The mileage is exceptionally low for an eight year old Sprinter, averaging roughly 3,681 miles per year. The record shows a steady but light increase in usage, moving from 20,230 miles in September 2021 to 29,449 miles by October 2025. This low-use profile often suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary, which frequently leads to the type of surface corrosion and pitting seen on the brake discs. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system. The September 2024 test at 28,052 miles noted binding on the offside front and rear service brakes, alongside excessive parking brake travel. Because the October 2025 test still shows pitted and scored discs, it appears the previous owner may have ignored the binding issues rather than stripping and servicing the calipers. Check for any signs of seized calipers or sticking sliders that could be causing premature disc wear. Given the low mileage and the evidence of pitting, the buyer should also inspect the underbody for corrosion, as vehicles that sit idle in damp environments are more susceptible to structural rust despite the low odometer reading.
