AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Mercedes-Benz has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 12,661 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the recurring tyre failures and low usage present significant risks.
The vehicle shows only 12,661 miles since January 2018, a severe discrepancy from the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, suggesting possible odometer tampering.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 12,661 miles over 8 years (Jan 2018), indicating potential odometer fraud.
- Recurring dangerous tyre defects: Nearside Front (Aug 2021) and Offside Front (Sep 2022) show severe damage.
- Dangerous tyre defects: Offside Front Tyre had ply exposed (Sep 2022), a serious safety failure.
- Low annual mileage: 3,763 miles/year since 2018, far below typical UK usage, raises fraud concerns.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring major mechanical failures (e.g., brakes, suspension) beyond the tyre issues.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety
