AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Mercedes-Benz has 15 MOT tests on record with a 87% pass rate and 14,576 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated issues suggest ongoing maintenance needs and potential hidden costs.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,266 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage, though there was a 2-year period (2018-2020) of very low usage.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures in suspension (Sep 2023, Sep 2025) and brakes (Sep 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Brake hose advisories appear in 5 separate tests (2017, 2023, 2025), a clear pattern of neglect.
- Anti-roll bar link advisories escalate to major failures (Sep 2023, Sep 2025), showing a clear deterioration.
- Offside Front Position lamp advisories escalate to major failures (Sep 2023, Sep 2025), indicating a recurring electrical issue.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Consistent mileage trajectory averaging 9,266 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage.
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-29, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
