This 2017 Mercedes-Benz has 6 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 23,551 miles. The car's low annual usage (4,788 miles/yr) is a major red flag for a diesel engine.
The vehicle shows exceptionally low annual usage of 4,788 miles/year, averaging only 23,551 miles over 9 years, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year.
Things to check
- 2020-10-24 FAILED MOT for Nearside Front Tyre cut, indicating a major safety defect.
- 2024 and 2025 MOT gaps suggest periods of SORN or off-road use, impacting maintenance.
- Consistently low annual mileage (4,788 mi/yr) for a 2017 diesel is a significant long-term reliability risk.
- Community-reported 'wheel bearing' and 'Turbo oil feed line seal leak' are high-risk issues for this model.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until April 2027, indicating current roadworthiness and no immediate retest.
- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects since the 2020 tyre issue.
- Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating for 2017 model provides strong inherent safety.
