This 2010 Mercedes-Benz has 17 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 8,606 miles. The very low mileage of 47,039 miles for a 16-year-old vehicle raises significant odometer fraud concerns.

The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 47,039 miles over 16 years (average 2,890 miles/year), which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year and raises odometer fraud suspicions.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 47,039 miles for a 16-year-old vehicle (Apr 2026).
  • Recurring DANGEROUS defects: Tyres (Feb 2019), Brakes (Feb 2019), Suspension (Feb 2021).
  • Recurring MAJOR failures: Brakes (6 failures), Engine/Oil (2 failures), Lights (1 failure).
  • Recurring ADVISORIES: Tyres (9 tests), Brake hose (3 tests), Suspension arm (4 tests).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until April 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded (Apr 2026).
  • Consistent mileage trajectory despite low annual usage (Apr 2026).
