This 2007 Mercedes has 22 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 31,455 miles. The vehicle's history shows a pattern of wear on critical safety components.

The vehicle shows consistent low annual mileage, averaging 10,124 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, including a period of very low usage (Jan 2024: 190,636 mi).

Things to check

  • Feb 2021: Major failure for Nearside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded.
  • Jan 2024: Dangerous defect for Offside Rear Inner Tyre has ply or cords exposed.
  • Recurring advisories for brake hose corrosion (Feb 2019, Feb 2021) and suspension (Feb 2023).
  • Feb 2021: Retest PASS after initial failure for Nearside Rear Brake pipe corrosion.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-28, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (10,124 mi/yr) suggests light use.
  • No recurring failures on the same system after initial advisories were addressed.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or suspicious mileage patterns.
