Our Verdict
A highly recommended purchase for those
Focus your due diligence on the service history, as the 6.2L engine requires strict adherence to maintenance intervals to ensure long-term health. While the MOT history is clear, verify that all major service items have been completed according to the manufacturer's schedule. Check for any non-standard modifications that may have been added to this performance variant, as these can impact future resale value.
Running costs for this vehicle will be very high due to the 6.2L engine displacement. Fuel consumption will be significant, and the vehicle will fall into a high road tax bracket. Insurance costs will also be elevated, reflecting the high performance and engine size of this specific model.
Although this vehicle has no recorded MOT defects, aggregate data for this model shows that suspension arms, headlamps, and tyres are common failure points. Carefully inspect the suspension components for any signs of wear and ensure all lighting systems are fully operational. Check the tyre tread and condition, as tyre-related issues are a frequent cause of MOT failure across the wider model range.
This silver 2012 Mercedes-Benz C is powered by a 6.2L petrol engine and has covered 72,842 miles. The MOT history is notably clean, with four consecutive passes and no recorded defects since July 2022. Its annual mileage is significantly lower than the model average, suggesting it has been used sparingly.
The C-Class demonstrates a solid reliability profile with an average MOT pass rate of 82.4% across the analysed dataset.
