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

This 2004 Mercedes has 18 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 6,862 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT pass, the vehicle's age and past usage patterns present substantial risks.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 6,862 miles over 22 years, with a critical anomaly of 13,077 miles/year before June 2016, indicating a significant change in usage.

Things to check

  • Extremely low mileage of 6,862 miles over 22 years (Jul 2022) suggests long periods of inactivity.
  • Critical mileage anomaly: 13,077 miles/year before Jun 2016, indicating a significant change in usage.
  • One MOT failure (Sep 2019) with no defect details provided, preventing proper assessment of the issue.
  • Brake pad advisory from Jul 2022 indicates wear that needs monitoring.

Working in its favour

  • Clean recent MOT pass in Jul 2022 with no current failures or advisories.
  • No recurring major system failures or dangerous defects in the MOT history.
  • Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage since the 2016 anomaly.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
