Also looking at other cars I've seen a few with these repairs - this is on a 2012 plate with 76k.

What's the possible reason(s) for this - looks very expensive?

I'm thinking this is a good one as the condition looks as near mint as possible - certainly for it's age! Also the last owner was an elderly gentleman golfer from Glasgow. My only concern is that he looks to have skimped on servicing only having oil changes since 2017.
However I have noted that MB Mobilo was still in effect after each service - I thought this was only possible if ALL scheduled service items were done?
Could it be possible that these have been missed on the DSB?

Mobilo and breakdown assistance have been one and the same in the past but they’re not now.

Breakdown assistance comes with every main dealer A or B service, and is valid for 12 months, so you could not service the car at all for 10 years and then service it and get 12 months breakdown assistance, but it will expire if you don’t service the car with a main dealer gain.

Mobilo also included a “warranty” against corrosion of body panels which originated from inside the panel (not the same as under the paint), and excluded corrosion originating from the outside of the panel. There is supposed to be an inspection of the bodywork with each main dealer A or B service, which extends this cover.

Once the’s a break in the servicing schedule, then this bodywork warranted lapses and cannot be reinstated by performing main dealer services at a later date. It’s very difficult to make a claim too, so some say it’s not worth bothering. If you intend to use a main dealer then it’s a nice bonus (as long as the service history is perfect).
