2017 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Diesel · LL67 AEU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 September 2025 at 44,322 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,925 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between 13 September 2024 and 8 September 2025, where the odometer rose from 33,565 to 44,322 miles. This indicates a shift from light usage to more regular driving in the last year. The records show two instances where the car failed immediately before passing on the same day or within a short window, which often suggests minor administrative errors or quick fixes of consumable items not detailed in the summary. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade during periods of low use or standing. While the MOT history is clean of structural corrosion or suspension failures, low-mileage cars often suffer from perished tyre rubber or seized brake calipers. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure the tyres have no flat spots or sidewall cracking despite having legal tread. Verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters were changed based on time intervals rather than just mileage. The lack of reported defects in the DVSA record is positive, but it does not replace the need to check for fluid leaks or battery health, as these are not always flagged unless they cause a direct test failure.
