2016 MERCEDES-BENZ C2.1L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 24 February 2026 at 48,036 miles which returned zero defects. The maintenance trend is exceptionally stable and improving, as the last three consecutive tests have passed without any advisories or failures. This suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained and does not currently suffer from recurring mechanical issues or structural degradation. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. Between March 2022 at 31,126 miles and February 2026 at 48,036 miles, the car covered roughly 17,000 miles, indicating consistent but light usage. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the age-related degradation of rubber components or brake caliper corrosion if the car sits stationary for extended periods. The only recorded issue in the history occurred on 13 March 2023 at 35,358 miles, where the offside front tyre was flagged for being close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. This indicates a potential alignment issue or uneven wear at that time, which appears to have been resolved. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the current tyres for uneven wear to ensure no lingering geometry faults. Given the low annual mileage, it is also advisable to check the brake discs for pitting or rust, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface oxidation on the braking system.
