This 2015 Mercedes-Benz has 15 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 46,137 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated dangerous tyre defects and major brake failures indicate a history of reactive maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistent mileage, averaging 12,619 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though annual usage has varied significantly over its 11-year life.
Things to check
- Recurring DANGEROUS tyre defects (4 instances) across multiple tests, including Sep 2022 and Sep 2023.
- Major brake failures (5 instances) and advisories (3 related) in Sep 2023 and Sep 2023.
- Consistent high annual mileage (12,619 mi/yr) for its age, indicating more wear and tear.
- Multiple same-day retests (e.g., Sep 2023, Oct 2023) suggest reactive, rather than proactive, maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its model.
