2021 Mercedes-Benz C 220 AMG Line NGT ED Prem D A 1.9L Diesel · HN21 ABF

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-04-30 at 21,244 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating current roadworthiness. However, the pattern of alternating pass/fail results on the same date in 2025 and 2024—without recorded defects—suggests potential inconsistencies in testing or resolution of minor issues. No structural, braking, or suspension faults were flagged in the history, implying a stable maintenance trend, though the lack of detailed defect records limits definitive assessment. The vehicle’s mileage of 21,244 miles over five years equates to an average of 4,249 miles annually, significantly below typical usage. This low mileage may indicate infrequent use or prolonged storage, which can accelerate corrosion in underbody components or degrade rubber seals. The 2024-04-04 tests at 16,624–16,641 miles and the subsequent 2025-04-30 tests at 21,235–21,244 miles show a 5,000-mile increase in one year, suggesting a possible shift to more regular use. However, the sparse MOT data offers limited insight into wear on consumables like tyres or brake pads. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the underbody for rust, particularly in areas prone to moisture retention, and test suspension components for wear, given the low mileage’s potential to mask gradual degradation. The absence of braking system defects in records is reassuring, but a pre-purchase inspection should confirm caliper function and brake disc condition. Additionally, verifying the vehicle’s service history and checking for unresolved advisories from the MOT tests would provide further clarity on its mechanical integrity.
