2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · BU65 AEB

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent 2025-12-22 MOT at 134,998 miles recording no defects. All prior tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring mechanical or structural faults were flagged across the six-year history, suggesting the previous owner prioritized regular servicing. The absence of advisories or failures implies the car has been well-maintained within the scope of mandatory inspections. The mileage progression reveals a steep climb post-2022, with 75,237 miles recorded in January 2022, rising to 134,998 by December 2025—a 59,761-mile increase over 3.75 years. This equates to an average of 15,936 miles annually, exceeding the vehicle’s age-based norm. Notable gaps between tests, such as the 10,561-mile jump between the 2023-02-07 and 2024-01-12 MOTs, suggest potential variations in usage or recording accuracy. The high mileage raises concerns about accelerated wear on consumables like tyres and brake components, though no such issues were documented. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as high mileage often exacerbates these issues. The exhaust system merits scrutiny for corrosion or leaks, particularly given the vehicle’s age. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as excessive mileage can compromise braking efficiency. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the lack of detailed service records means hidden wear in non-MOT-covered areas—such as the drivetrain or electrical systems—remains a risk. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic is strongly advised.
