AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Mercedes-Benz has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 18,773 miles. The vehicle's history shows a consistent low mileage, but the repeated tyre advisories and a past brake failure suggest potential underlying issues.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,696 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 57,462 miles recorded over 10 years.
Things to check
- Brake failure on 2023-01-23 (37,287 mi) for imbalanced front brakes, though rectified.
- Brake disc wear advisory on 2022-01-24 (33,037 mi) suggests ongoing brake maintenance needs.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- Valid MOT until 2027-01-29 provides significant peace of mind for immediate roadworthiness.
- Consistent low annual mileage (5,696 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
