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

This 2013 Mercedes-Benz has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 45,084 miles. While these were addressed, the repeated advisories on critical safety components warrant a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 10,044 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Feb 2019, Jun 2023) suggest ongoing wear and potential future costs.
  • Multiple tyre failures (Feb 2020, Jun 2023) and advisories (Nov 2017) point to a history of poor tyre maintenance.
  • Windscreen issues (5 minor advisories, 1 major failure in Feb 2020) indicate a recurring problem.
  • The 2013 Mercedes-Benz is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring a daily charge in London.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until August 2026, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage (10,044 miles/year) suggests genuine, light use.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
