AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Mercedes-Benz has 20 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 48,939 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with recurring issues and unexplained mileage, makes it a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows a 16-year gap in mileage records from 2014 to 2024, with suspiciously low annual usage (654 mi/yr equivalent) before Jan 2025, followed by a significant increase.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: 16-year MOT record gap (2014-2024) with suspiciously low annual usage (654 mi/yr equivalent).
- Recurring failures: 5 test failures across 13 MOTs, including brakes, tyres, and suspension.
- High-concern advisories: Recurring advisories on tyres, brakes, and suspension across multiple tests.
- Unexplained service gap: 2024 MOT gap suggests potential SORN or unrecorded history.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-01-21, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent annual mileage (8,223 mi/yr) since 2019, aligning with UK average.
- No recent major failures or advisories from the last MOT in Jan 2026.
- Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates high safety standards for its model.
