2017 Mercedes-Benz C 4.0L Petrol · LY67 BYJ

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz C presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 March 2026 at 57,059 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes. Every examination from December 2022 through to the current record shows zero advisories or failures, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test regime. The mileage pattern sits close to typical for a nine-year-old car. Annual use stayed light, rising from 39,683 miles at the 8 December 2022 test to 47,419 miles by 5 December 2023, then 53,095 miles on 17 December 2024 and 55,085 miles on 8 April 2025. The final jump to 57,059 miles by March 2026 reflects roughly 2,000 miles in eleven months. No rapid accumulation or standing gaps appear; the DVSA data is sparse but consistently clean across all five entries. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low yearly use may mask intermittent corrosion or perished rubber unseen during annual testing. The absence of recorded advisories means no recurring mechanical faults demand targeted scrutiny. Verify underside structural integrity and exhaust condition in person, as nine years of age can hide moisture-related deterioration between tests. Previous keepers clearly kept the car to a standard that satisfied examiners without deferred consumable neglect. The clean history implies disciplined servicing rather than patch repairs, though low mileage alone does not certify component life. Treat the MOT record as supportive evidence, not a substitute for a physical appraisal before purchase.
