2020 Mercedes-Benz C 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · R25 BAX

The vehicle demonstrates consistent roadworthiness, with all MOT tests from 2023 to 2026 passing without defects. The most recent April 2026 test at 31,553 miles confirmed no issues, reflecting a stable maintenance trend. No recurring faults or structural concerns were flagged across the recorded history, indicating the car has been well-maintained. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the previous owner prioritized regular servicing, though the low mileage raises questions about usage patterns. The mileage progression shows an average annual increase of 5,259 miles, aligning with the vehicle’s age but remaining below typical benchmarks for its model. Notable gaps, such as the 2,141-mile jump between the 2023 test (17,654 miles) and 2024 test (19,795 miles), may indicate periods of inactivity. Conversely, the 6,871-mile rise between 2024 and 2025 suggests more frequent use. This irregularity underscores the need for a physical inspection to assess wear on components not tested in MOTs, such as suspension bushes or coil springs, which can degrade during prolonged idleness. While the MOT record is clean, buyers should verify the condition of brake discs, calipers, and exhaust emissions, as these systems are critical yet not always fully evaluated in routine tests. Low mileage does not eliminate the risk of corrosion or dry rot, particularly in areas prone to moisture. A thorough check of the underbody for rust and the battery’s health is advisable, given the potential for inactivity. The absence of recorded issues is positive, but physical scrutiny remains essential to confirm the vehicle’sTrue mechanical state.
