2008 Mercedes-Benz Hymer S 800 3.0L Diesel · WUI 4015

The vehicle is roadworthy and its maintenance record is encouragingly stable. At the most recent test on 15 July 2025, with 45,319 miles recorded, it passed with no defects or advisories. Each prior pass across the history is equally clean. The single failure on 3 July 2023 at 40,423 miles was followed by a pass just sixteen days later at 40,444 miles with no defects recorded, which reads as a minor rectification rather than the onset of a mechanical fault. The mileage pattern fits the clean history. Roughly 2,518 miles per year across an 18-year-old vehicle is low usage, and the trend is consistent rather than erratic. Between June 2022 and July 2023 the vehicle covered about 4,300 miles. That dropped to around 3,500 miles in the following year, and only about 1,400 miles between June 2024 and July 2025. The slowing accumulation suggests lighter recent use, possibly periods of standing, but no gaps long enough to raise serious concern about storage-related deterioration. Because the MOT record shows no recurring faults, there are no specific problem areas to target. However, a clean test history does not reveal everything. On an 18-year-old base vehicle standing at this weight, the suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and calipers all merit a physical check, as do the tyres for age cracking even where tread depth is legal. The underside should also be inspected for corrosion; structural rust can sit outside the view of an MOT tester yet still compromise the chassis over time. The paperwork points to careful ownership, but a hands-on inspection of those mechanical and structural points remains the sensible final step before purchase.
