2017 Mercedes-Benz C 3.0L Petrol · TAZ 4

The overall roadworthiness status of this Mercedes-Benz is sound, supported by a stable maintenance trend that culminates in a clear pass on the thirty-first of March 2025. The test history shows a clean slate across the four most recent annual examinations, though the record does feature a curious anomaly on the twenty-eighth of March 2023 where an initial test failure was recorded on the exact same day as a subsequent pass. This sequence implies a same-day rectification of a minor testable item, but the lack of detailed advisory notes leaves the exact nature of that initial failure unrecorded. The vehicle accumulates mileage at a remarkably low rate, sitting at thirty-six thousand two hundred and forty-six miles across approximately nine years of age, which averages out to roughly four thousand miles annually. The MOT log shows consistent yearly testing without extended gaps or periods of statutory off-road notification, indicating regular annual presentation despite the light usage. Low mileage profiles of this nature can occasionally mask age-related degradation of rubber components and braking systems, even if the annual mileage accumulation appears steady. Physical inspection should focus heavily on suspension bushes, steering joints, and brake discs, as low-mileage modern Mercedes models frequently suffer from surface corrosion on braking components and premature perring of rubber elastomers due to infrequent use. The exhaust emissions and structural integrity appear uncompromised based on the test data, but a comprehensive ramp inspection remains necessary to check for subframe corrosion and potential fluid seepage from the powertrain. Buyers must verify the physical condition of the tyres for age cracking alongside checking the electronic systems for stored diagnostic fault codes that do not trigger visual MOT failures.
