AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Mercedes has 14 MOT tests on record with a 93% pass rate and 19,028 miles. The recent suspension advisory and low annual usage also warrant careful inspection.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,620 miles per year, with a notable increase in usage from 2020 onwards, but no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.
Things to check
- 15-year history of owner-reported faults for timing chain, head gasket, and oil consumption — high risk of costly repairs.
- Recent Dec 2025 MOT advisory for a suspension arm indicates ongoing wear and potential future costs.
- Consistent low annual mileage (4,620 mi/yr) for a 15-year-old vehicle can exacerbate age-related component wear.
Working in its favour
- Clean MOT pass record with no failures across 8 tests, indicating no immediate safety concerns.
- Consistent low mileage (4,620 mi/yr) suggests light use, potentially extending component life.
- Recent MOT expiry of 2027-01-03 provides peace of mind for the next two years.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a well-regarded safety record for its era.
