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

This 2016 Mercedes-Benz has 6 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 58,226 miles. While it has a recent clean MOT pass, the high mileage and past issues warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows high annual usage averaging 16,259 miles/year, with a notable 20,232-mile increase between July 2019 and January 2021, and a 17,409-mile increase between January 2022 and January 2023.

Things to check

  • High mileage of 114,615 miles (Jan 2023) suggests significant wear and tear.
  • Major windscreen failure (July 2019) indicates a significant safety-critical defect.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (Jan 2021, Jan 2022) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
  • Offside Headlamp aim failure (Jan 2022) points to electrical system wear.

Working in its favour

  • Recent clean MOT pass (Jan 2023) confirms current roadworthiness.
  • No recurring major failures on critical safety systems (brakes, suspension).
  • Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and no hidden storage.
  • Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating (2017) indicates strong inherent safety features.
