2011 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · PE61 AEU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-04-03 at 111,121 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. The prior test on 2025-04-10 at 103,764 miles also passed, though a failure on 2025-04-07 at 103,749 miles—just three days earlier—showed no defects. This suggests either a data inconsistency or a test with no recorded issues, which is uncommon. Overall, the absence of defects in the last three tests implies consistent upkeep, though the brief failure entry raises questions about procedural accuracy. The mileage progression aligns with the vehicle’s 15-year age, averaging 7,408 miles annually. From 2023-04-15 (85,299 miles) to 2026-04-03 (111,121 miles), the car gained 25,822 miles over 34 months, a steady rate. No significant gaps or spikes in mileage are evident, suggesting regular use without prolonged inactivity. The MOT history is sparse but clean, with no recurring issues flagged, though the 2025-04-07 failure remains unexplained. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, as older Mercedes-Benz models often experience wear in bushes or coil springs. The absence of brake-related defects in recent tests is positive, but a visual inspection of brake discs and calipers for corrosion or uneven wear is advisable. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as rust can develop in older vehicles, particularly in underbody areas. No specific advisories from the MOT record necessitate immediate concern, but thorough checks on high-mileage components are recommended.
