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

This 2009 Mercedes-Benz has 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 23,756 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of neglect in critical safety components is a significant red flag.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 14,556 miles per year, with a notable spike of 31,573 miles between Nov 2019 and Nov 2020.

Things to check

  • Dangerous tyre defects recorded on 2012-11-19 and 2014-11-17, indicating severe neglect of critical safety components.
  • High mileage for its age: 23,756 miles over 17 years, significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles/year.
  • Recurring advisories for brake pads and discs (2014-11-17), and tyres (2012-11-19, 2014-11-17), suggesting a pattern of deferred maintenance.
  • The 2014-11-17 failure for headlamp cleaning device, a basic safety item, further highlights poor owner care.

Working in its favour

  • Passed 3 out of 5 MOT tests, indicating some periods of basic roadworthiness.
  • No major structural failures or recurring major system failures (e.g., brakes, suspension) are noted in the MOT history.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars indicates a strong safety record for its model year.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers, suggesting genuine odometer readings.
