About the 2019 MERCEDES HYMER

The 2019 MERCEDES HYMER is a family car with a 2143cc diesel engine. 131 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. Among all cars from 2019, the average MOT pass rate is 90%, and this model beats that benchmark.

With an average of 17,256 miles at 5 years old, MERCEDES HYMER owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.

2019 MERCEDES HYMER Fuel Costs

The 2143cc diesel engine offers a reasonable balance between performance and economy. Expect around 40 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £1,245 per year at current diesel prices of 148p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year). Diesel cars of this age should have their DPF (diesel particulate filter) checked, as replacements can be costly.

Total estimated annual running cost is £1,690 (£141/month), broken down as £1245 fuel, £190 road tax, £55 MOT, and £200 predicted repairs. The low repair estimate reflects the excellent 93% pass rate. These cars rarely fail their MOT, so unexpected bills are less likely.

Buying a Used 2019 MERCEDES HYMER
