MERCEDES-BENZ A-CLASS2017 · 1.6L Petrol

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of passes over the last four years. The most recent test on 19 January 2026 at 74,018 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test six days prior on 13 January 2026, the record shows no specific defects for that failure, which often suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical fault. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for a nine-year-old vehicle. It covered 8,818 miles between January 2024 and January 2025, and saw a slight increase in usage to 8,825 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. This steady pattern indicates regular use rather than periods of prolonged standing, which helps maintain the health of seals and battery life. The absence of any advisories or failures regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion across five years of testing is uncommon and suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance. There are no recurring trends of wear on consumables or structural integrity issues flagged in the DVSA data. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the brake pads and tyre tread depths, as these are wear items that may not have reached a failure threshold during the January 2026 test. Checking the service book for evidence of oil changes and transmission fluid flushes will confirm if the mechanical care matches the clean MOT history.
