2010 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · YW07 EVA

As a 2010 diesel Sprinter with a 2143cc engine, this van will fall into a higher Vehicle Excise Duty band for older diesels and likely an elevated insurance group due to commercial classification. Fuel economy on a well-maintained example is reasonable for the size, but urban use with a loaded van will increase consumption. Based on mileage of roughly 132,000 miles and typical diesel van maintenance, estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance, and servicing are around £2,500-£3,200.

The MOT history shows brake pipe corrosion flagged in September 2023 and offside rear sill mounting corrosion noted in February 2025, so physically inspect all brake lines and the rear sill areas for rust progression. The September 2023 failure listed an engine MIL indicating a malfunction and rear reflectors damaged by over 50%, plus stop lamps masked with tape and paint, so verify the dashboard has no warning lights and all lamps function correctly. With 132,559 miles recorded, check the condition of the turbo, clutch, and suspension bushes given the age and noted suspension mounting corrosion.
