2017 Mercedes-Benz C220 D AMG Line Auto 2.1L Heavy oil · KJ66 AEO

This 2017 Mercedes-Benz C220 D presents an exceptionally strong record of roadworthiness, having passed its last five consecutive MOT tests without a single defect or advisory being recorded. The most recent inspection on 2026-04-17 continued this trend, indicating a consistent track record of meeting safety and environmental standards over the past five years. This clean history suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that has prevented any issues from reaching a reportable threshold during its official examinations. The vehicle has accumulated a significant 146,911 miles over approximately nine years, equating to an average annual mileage of around 16,323 miles. This high usage profile indicates consistent operation, likely involving a substantial amount of motorway driving. While a clean MOT history is positive, such high mileage inherently means that many components have undergone extensive operational cycles, leading to cumulative wear on items such as suspension components, braking system parts, and various drivetrain elements. Given the substantial mileage, a prospective buyer should conduct a thorough pre-purchase inspection focusing on areas typically subject to wear that might not yet have manifested as an MOT advisory. Pay close attention to the suspension system; listen for any knocking, creaking, or excessive body roll over uneven surfaces, which could indicate worn bushes, ball joints, or tired dampers. Check the braking system for any signs of judder through the pedal or steering wheel during braking, suggesting warped discs, and ensure the vehicle pulls up straight without deviation. Furthermore, assess the general condition of the steering system for any excessive play or vagueness, which could point to wear in the tie rod ends or steering rack components. While the MOT record is clear, a high-mileage diesel engine and automatic transmission warrant careful evaluation of their operational smoothness, listening for any unusual noises or harsh gear changes. A comprehensive inspection by a qualified technician is highly recommended to assess the overall structural integrity for any early signs of corrosion, particularly on subframes and brake pipes, and to evaluate the remaining service life of all consumables and mechanical components.
