This 2016 Mercedes-Benz has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 26,401 miles. However, the MOT history reveals recurring brake advisories and a past failure for a distorted front wheel, alongside significant community-reported faults.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 8,079 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.
Things to check
- Recurring brake disc advisories (Mar 2020, Mar 2022, Mar 2023) suggest ongoing wear.
- Nearside Front Inner Road wheel fractured (Mar 2022) indicates a past structural issue.
- Community-reported faults for wheel bearing, turbo oil feed line, and head gasket are serious.
- MINOR advisory for anti-roll bar link (Mar 2026) is a recent concern.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027 provides immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (8,079 mi/yr) indicates light use.
- No major recurring failures or dangerous defects in the MOT history.
- Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating for 2017 model is excellent.
