This 2015 Mercedes-Benz has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 22,375 miles. The car also shows a pattern of owner-reported faults for timing chain and head gasket issues, which are critical for a 2015 diesel.

The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,820 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Major failure for windscreen damage on 2019-03-31, though retested PASS.
  • Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (2019, 2023, 2024) suggest ongoing wear.
  • Community-reported timing chain and head gasket issues for a 2015 diesel are critical.
  • Low annual mileage (6,820 mi/yr) may indicate limited use, potentially affecting maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-03-07, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,820 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No recurring major failures on critical systems like brakes or suspension.
