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

This 2015 Mercedes-Benz has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 31,640 miles. However, a pattern of recurring tyre and brake advisories, escalating to failures, and a recent suspension advisory warrant a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 6,364 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (Aug 2020, Jul 2021, Aug 2022, Aug 2023, Aug 2024, Aug 2025) suggest chronic wear.
  • Brake pad wear escalated from advisory (Aug 2020) to DANGEROUS failure (Aug 2022), indicating a reactive maintenance approach.
  • Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint advisory (Aug 2020) recurred as MAJOR failure (Aug 2024) and remains an advisory (Aug 2025).
  • Windscreen minor defects recorded in 3 separate tests (Aug 2020, Jul 2021, Aug 2022) suggest a recurring issue.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-08-18, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 6,364 miles/year, indicating genuine and light usage.
  • No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects found in the MOT history.
