2013 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · HN63 ABU

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 17 April 2025 at 62,706 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This trend of stable performance across the last five years suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that does not suffer from recurring mechanical or structural failures common in this model. The mileage profile is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. The data shows a significant gap between January 2021 and January 2023, during which the car covered only 3,620 miles. However, the usage became more frequent in 2024, with 2,859 miles recorded between the January 2024 test and the May 2024 tests. This low annual mileage generally indicates less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of age-related degradation during long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record is impeccable, a physical inspection must account for specific issues associated with low-mileage Mercedes vehicles. Attention should be paid to dry rubber components, specifically perished suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls which may crack from age rather than tread wear. The buyer should also check for brake corrosion or seized calipers, as infrequent use can lead to surface rust on the discs. Examining the underbody for early-stage structural corrosion remains essential despite the MOT history not flagging any structural weaknesses to date.
