This 2006 Mercedes has 20 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 15,719 miles. The vehicle's 20-year age means significant wear is expected despite its low annual usage.

Things to check
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,380 miles/year) for a 20-year-old vehicle suggests long periods of inactivity.
- Recurring windscreen damage advisories (Jun 2023, Jun 2022, Jun 2021) indicate a persistent issue.
- Three MOT failures (Jun 2021, Jun 2022, Jun 2024) for suspension, seatbelt, and lights, though all rectified.
- The vehicle has been Untaxed since the last MOT, requiring immediate verification of tax status.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until June 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating no immediate safety hazards.
