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

This 2007 Mercedes has 22 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 46,922 miles. The vehicle's mileage has been consistently low, but a significant 4-year gap in MOT records and a 19-year-old vehicle present substantial risks.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Nov 2024 (15 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage, with a 4-year MOT gap (2022-2023) and a 1-year gap (2024-2025).

Things to check

  • MOT history shows 4 failures and 7 passes across 11 tests, indicating persistent neglect.
  • Recurring major failures in critical safety systems: brakes (7 advisories), tyres (4 advisories), and suspension (1 advisory).
  • Engine/Oil major failure on 2018-08-20, a serious defect for a 2007 Mercedes.
  • Suspiciously low mileage before Nov 2024 (15 mi/yr equivalent) suggests extended disuse.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-25, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No mileage anomalies detected after Nov 2024, suggesting consistent recent usage.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) for a 2007 Mercedes is excellent.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Jan 2026).
