AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2015 Mercedes-Benz has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 34,622 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of repeated failures and advisories on the same components suggests a reactive maintenance approach.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,726 miles per year, but a significant 6,131-mile discrepancy on 31 Mar 2026 and 08 Apr 2026 retests warrants investigation.
Things to check
- Recurring DANGEROUS brake failures (Jan 2020) and advisories (Nov 2018) indicate chronic brake system neglect.
- Recurring DANGEROUS tyre failures (Feb 2021) and advisories (Jan 2020) show a pattern of poor tyre maintenance.
- Recurring MAJOR suspension failures (Mar 2022) and advisories (Feb 2021) point to ongoing structural wear.
- Unusually large 6,131-mile difference between retest pair on 31 Mar 2026 / 08 Apr 2026 suggests a data anomaly or potential odometer fraud.
Working in its favour
- Vehicle has a valid MOT until April 2027, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent mileage trajectory over 11 years, averaging 7,726 miles/year, suggests normal usage.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off markers or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety foundation for the model.
