2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · E4 PGC

The vehicle presents a generally stable maintenance profile, though the most recent MOT results from September 2025 indicate a decline in consumable upkeep. While the car passed its latest test at 77,557 miles, the tester flagged multiple tyre defects, specifically noting that the nearside front, offside front, and offside rear tyres were all worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges. The offside front tyre also showed signs of cracking or perishing. This shift from the clean 2024 test at 69,096 miles suggests a period of deferred maintenance regarding tyre replacement. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 8,617 miles per year, moving from 15,603 miles in October 2019 to 77,557 miles in September 2025. A notable increase in usage occurred between September 2023 and September 2024, where the mileage jumped from roughly 45,000 to 69,000. This period of higher activity likely contributed to the accelerated wear on the tyres noted in the most recent inspection. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyre condition. The record shows a history of brake-related issues, including thin rear pads in October 2020 and worn front brake discs in September 2023. Given the recent tyre advisories, a thorough check of the tread depth and sidewall integrity across all four corners is necessary. Additionally, the 2021 failure regarding an inoperative engine malfunction indicator light warrants verification that all electronic sensor systems and dashboard warnings are currently functioning correctly.
