Our Verdict

Approach with caution and a thorough inspection before purchase. This 2004 Mercedes-Benz A-Class diesel has a large gap in MOT records and very low annual mileage since 2018, which raises questions about its storage and maintenance history.

Given the 7.5-year gap between the 2018 and 2026 MOT tests, ask the seller for evidence of how the car was stored and whether it was driven at all during that period. A vehicle left unused for years can suffer from seized brakes, degraded seals, flat-spotted tyres, and drained batteries even if the latest MOT is clean. Request full service history and confirm timing belt or chain condition, as diesel A-Class units of this age need periodic attention.
