2019 Mercedes-Benz A 2.0L Petrol · M14 NAK

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status based on the most recent MOT test conducted on 26 November 2025 at 93,586 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. Maintenance trend remains stable across the available history. Following an anomalous failure on 2 December 2022 at 42,711 miles with no defects logged, the same-day retest at 42,771 miles passed. Every subsequent annual examination returned a clean pass with zero advisories. The DVSA record shows consistent statutory compliance. The mileage progression reveals high but evenly spread accumulation for a 2019 plate. From the 2 December 2022 test at 42,771 miles to the 24 November 2023 test at 57,201 miles, the car covered 14,430 miles in eleven months. The 20 December 2024 reading of 77,136 miles reflects 19,935 miles over thirteen months, and the 26 November 2025 figure of 93,586 miles adds 16,450 miles across eleven months. Average annual use sits near 13,369 miles, exceeding typical private motoring yet showing no sudden gaps. The sparse but clean record suggests the previous keeper renewed consumables ahead of each test. Despite the absence of recorded faults, a buyer should physically verify suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the 93,586-mile elapsed distance and seven-year age. The tester flagged no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, but hidden rust can develop on sills and subframes unseen in a remote history. Inspect for binding calipers and uneven tyre wear that high-mileage use often induces. Examine exhaust emissions during a cold start and confirm service invoices align with the odometer. The earlier administrative failure without listed defects warrants a check of the DVSA refusal notice to rule out a documentation error. A pre-purchase inspection by a Mercedes-Benz specialist remains prudent.
