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 12 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 34,715 miles. The mileage anomaly in the early years also warrants careful investigation.
The vehicle shows normal annual usage (10,608 miles/yr) from 2020 onwards, but a critical anomaly of only 419 miles in the first 3 years (Jan 2016 to Mar 2024) is highly suspicious.
