2016 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · E14 MAC

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with all MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent 2025-08-22 test at 65,452 miles confirmed compliance, aligning with the 2024-09-05 and 2023-09-01 results. No recurring mechanical issues or structural concerns were flagged across the six-year history, indicating consistent maintenance. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the car has been operated within normal parameters, with no evidence of neglect or excessive wear. Mileage progression shows a steady annual accumulation of approximately 5,000–6,000 miles, consistent with the vehicle’s age and typical usage. Tests spaced one year apart reveal no abrupt changes in mileage that might indicate periods of inactivity or heavy usage. The 2022-08-17 test at 52,554 miles and subsequent 2023-09-01 test at 58,583 miles reflect gradual wear, but no anomalies in the data. This pattern suggests the car has been driven regularly without significant lapses, reducing risks associated with prolonged idleness. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for wear on bushes and coil springs, common vulnerabilities in this model. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop over time even without MOT failures. The exhaust system and underbody should also be examined for rust, particularly in areas prone to moisture exposure. While the MOT history shows no critical issues, these components warrant close scrutiny to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing reliability.
