2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · KW67 ADO

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2025-10-16 at 28,063 miles confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded, maintaining a consistent pass status across all five annual tests. There is no evidence of recurring mechanical issues or advisories, suggesting the vehicle has undergone regular servicing and has not experienced any major failures requiring repair. The absence of defects in the most recent cycle—particularly in critical areas like brakes, suspension, and emissions—indicates the car has likely been maintained at a basic level, though this does not preclude hidden wear or deferred maintenance. The recorded mileage of 28,063 miles over nine years equates to approximately 3,118 miles annually, which is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. The incremental mileage increases between tests—ranging from 3,649 to 4,256 miles per year—show no sudden spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity, though the overall low usage may imply limited exposure to wear on high-mileage components like brakes, suspension bushes, or drivetrain fluids. The consistent annual mileage increments also suggest the vehicle has not been left stationary for extended periods, which could mitigate some corrosion risks. Given the clean MOT history without advisories, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of suspension components, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, as these are common wear items that may degrade without visible external signs. The brakes, though not flagged in tests, should be checked for uneven pad wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been lightly used but stored intermittently. Structural integrity—particularly around wheel arches, sills, and underbody—should also be examined for corrosion, as low mileage does not necessarily correlate with rust-free conditions. Finally, verify the condition of the exhaust system for leaks or damage, as emissions-related failures are rare in this model but can occur if the vehicle has been stored in damp environments.
