This 2009 Mercedes-Benz has 16 MOT tests on record with a 94% pass rate and 23,646 miles. The car's age and low annual usage present inherent wear risks.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Dec 2017 (74 mi/yr equivalent) and again before Mar 2018 (52 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage, indicating a 3-year data gap.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage recorded before Dec 2017 (74 mi/yr equivalent).
  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage recorded before Mar 2018 (52 mi/yr equivalent).
  • Brake disc wear: Front Brake disc worn, pitted or scored (Sep 2025 advisory) indicates imminent replacement.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Strong MOT record: 8 of 9 tests passed with no dangerous defects recorded.
  • Recent MOT pass: Valid MOT until 2026-09-05, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No major recurring failures: Single suspension failure was immediately addressed and passed.
