AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Mercedes-Benz has 8 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 31,499 miles. While these were addressed, the recurring nature of these issues raises significant concerns about the vehicle's long-term reliability and maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,175 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent period of very low usage (Jan 2023, 56,063 mi; Nov 2023, 58,909 mi) that is typical for a 2017 model.
Things to check
- 2021-10-26: DANGEROUS failure for Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below 1.6mm.
- 2021-10-26: DANGEROUS failure for Offside Front Tyre tread depth below 1.6mm.
- 2021-10-26: DANGEROUS failure for Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick.
- 2020-10-08: MAJOR failure for Offside Front Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,175 miles/year, no fraud indicators.
- All past MOT failures (tyres, brakes, suspension) were immediately rectified and passed on retest.
- No recurring major system failures since the 2021-10-26 dangerous defects were addressed.
