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

This 2009 Mercedes has 13 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 98,740 miles. The vehicle's high annual usage and SORN status require thorough investigation.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 19,686 miles per year, with consistent readings from 219,362 miles in Nov 2018 to 235,109 miles in Dec 2020.

Things to check

  • High annual mileage (19,686 mi/yr) indicates significant wear and tear.
  • Recurring advisories for brakes (Nov 2018) and suspension (Dec 2012) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
  • The vehicle is currently on SORN status, meaning no current MOT is valid.
  • The Dec 2020 MOT was a retest after the Dec 2019 failure, indicating a borderline pass.

Working in its favour

  • No MOT failures recorded across 3 tests, indicating no immediate safety concerns.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Dec 2020).
