This 2012 Mercedes-Benz has 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 78,790 miles. However, the vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, requiring immediate attention.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 17,062 miles per year, with a notable drop in usage from 2019 to 2023, but no suspicious readings.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre failures (2016, 2017, 2023) indicate a persistent wear issue.
  • The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, requiring immediate re-registration and inspection.
  • High mileage (198,389 miles) suggests increased wear and tear on components.
  • Previous MOT failures (2019, 2023) for tyres, though rectified, suggest a pattern of maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a safe and well-engineered vehicle.
