This 2016 Mercedes-Benz has 9 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 36,842 miles. The high annual mileage and recurring tyre issues warrant a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 15,302 miles per year, with a notable spike of 29,768 miles between Oct 2022 and Oct 2023, and a significant drop to 4,792 miles between Oct 2023 and Oct 2024.
Things to check
- High annual mileage (15,302 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr) suggests more wear and tear.
- Offside Rear Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge (Jul 2019) and Nearside Rear Tyre (Oct 2021) both show significant wear.
- Offside Front Tyre slightly damaged with puncture repaired (Jun 2022) and Nearside Front Tyre (Oct 2021) show repeated tyre issues.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
- No MOT failures recorded across 9 tests, indicating a well-maintained vehicle.
- Valid MOT until October 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
