This 2015 Mercedes-Benz has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 42,423 miles. The high mileage for its age, combined with known model weaknesses, presents potential future costs.

The vehicle shows consistent annual usage averaging 11,598 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent low annual usage of 9,094 miles in 2025.

Things to check

  • Dangerous Nearside Rear Tyre failure on 2021-12-07, though immediately rectified, signals past neglect.
  • High mileage of 126,790 miles for a 2015 model suggests increased wear and tear on components.
  • Community-reported 'wheel bearing [2005–present]' and 'Turbo oil feed line seal leak + oil filter housing leak on W207 [2012–present]' are significant model-specific weaknesses.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 11,598 miles/year, indicating regular use without suspicious gaps.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • The recent MOT pass on 2025-12-08 provides peace of mind for immediate roadworthiness.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) demonstrates a strong safety record for this model.
