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

This 2013 Mercedes-Benz has 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 13,493 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the low annual mileage and persistent tyre advisories warrant a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 3,539 miles/year, with a significant drop from 27,285 miles in Feb 2020 to 13,493 miles in Nov 2016, suggesting a period of inactivity or potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories from Jan 2019 to Oct 2025, escalating to a major failure in Oct 2025.
  • Significant mileage discrepancy: 27,285 miles in Feb 2020 dropped to 13,493 miles by Nov 2016.
  • Major failure for Engine/Oil in Oct 2025, though retested and passed same day.
  • Major failure for Tyres in Oct 2025, though retested and passed same day.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
  • Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of all MOT failures.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates strong safety features.
