2016 MERCEDES-BENZ C2.0L Petrol

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz C presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 July 2025 at 41,160 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, recurring advisories, or structural concerns across the available history. Annual mileage sits well below typical use for a ten-year-old car. The record runs from 31,031 miles on 25 June 2021 to 41,160 miles on 3 July 2025, an increase of just 10,129 miles over four years, averaging roughly 2,500 miles per year. Each test spans close annual intervals with no gaps, and the low, steady accumulation points to light private use rather than neglect. The clean sheets at every entry suggest the previous keeper kept basic consumables and mechanical items within test limits. Given the absence of any flagged items, the buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody corrosion, as MOT passes do not certify component life remaining. Low mileage and long standing periods can allow perished rubber, seized calipers, and surface rust to develop between tests without triggering a defect. A pre-purchase check should confirm tyre sidewall condition, fluid intervals, and drivetrain seals. The history implies careful ownership, but the 2025 pass is now twelve months old relative to today's date, so a fresh test or independent inspection remains prudent before purchase.
