This 2009 Mercedes-Benz has 19 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 74,168 miles. While it has a valid MOT until 2026, the underlying issues and inconsistent usage make it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows a suspiciously low average annual mileage of 9,987 miles/yr, with a significant anomaly of only 1,096 miles recorded between June 2024 and August 2025.

  • Major Engine/Oil failure on 2020-02-01 (test 1).

Working in its favour
