2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.6L Petrol · A21 MBE

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent pass on 3 March 2026 at 113,773 miles with no defects recorded. Prior tests in March 2025 at 105,466 miles and December 2023 at 99,901 miles also returned clean passes, showing no worsening mechanical condition across the recorded interval. The odometer sat at 91,417 miles for the December 2022 test and climbed to 99,901 miles by December 2023, then to 105,466 miles by March 2025 and 113,773 miles by March 2026. This equates to roughly 8,000 to 8,500 miles per year across the last three years, below the 11,377 miles per annum average for the vehicle's age. The record shows a single failure on 7 December 2023 at 99,901 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed by a pass on 8 December 2023 at identical mileage, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the car is now ten years old and past 113,000 miles. The MOT history flags no corrosion, exhaust emissions issues or structural integrity concerns across the five entries. The clean advisory record suggests previous owners kept basic consumable wear and serious mechanical risks under control, though DVSA tests do not assess gearbox, turbo or interior electrics.
