2017 MERCEDES-BENZ A-CLASS1.5L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted on 10 June 2025 at 64,426 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes since 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a high mechanical standard. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,158 miles per year. Between July 2022 and June 2025, the car covered 27,348 miles, showing a steady usage rate that avoids the accelerated wear associated with high-mile commuting or the component degradation often caused by long periods of stationary. The gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows an accumulation of 10,566 miles, which confirms regular annual operating intervals. The only anomaly in the record is a single failure recorded on 27 July 2023 at 45,839 miles, though the vehicle passed just two days later. Since no specific defects were listed for that failure in the provided data, it likely represented a minor consumable item such as a bulb or a wiper blade that was rectified immediately. The lack of recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake corrosion, or exhaust thinning across the last three years suggests the structural integrity and mechanical components are in good condition. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection to check for signs of fluid leaks or tyre perish, as the MOT is a static test for these issues. Given the low annual mileage, the focus should remain on the condition of the rubber-based components which may have aged despite low use. The overall data points to a well-cared-for example that has not suffered from mechanical neglect.
