AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2010 Mercedes-Benz has 20 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 23,444 miles. The mileage trajectory is consistent, but the recurring nature of critical safety systems makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,811 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the vehicle has accumulated significant mileage over its 16-year lifespan.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre failures in Sep 2023 and Aug 2025 indicate critical safety neglect.
  • Recurring brake system failures (Sep 2023, Sep 2024) and advisories (Aug 2025) point to chronic wear.
  • Major emissions failures (Sep 2023, Sep 2024) and advisories (Aug 2025) suggest ongoing engine issues.
  • Major engine/oil failure (Sep 2024) and bodywork failure (Sep 2024) highlight widespread neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no anomalies, averaging 7,811 miles/year.
  • Valid MOT until September 2026, indicating current roadworthiness despite past issues.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a strong safety foundation for its age.
