2016 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · SK16 ABX

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 29 January 2026 at 53,753 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, indicating the car is being kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,375 miles per year. Between February 2024 and January 2026, the odometer climbed from 47,852 to 53,753 miles. This modest increase of 5,901 miles over two years suggests light usage. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension, it can sometimes lead to issues with perished rubber components or stagnant fluids if the car spent long periods stationary. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, showing no recorded defects or advisories across multiple tests. The failures on 8 February 2024 and 30 January 2025 were resolved on the same day, which is common for minor administrative or quick-fix issues that do not leave a permanent mark on the technical record. There are no mentions of corrosion, brake disc wear, or suspension bush degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on items that MOT testers often overlook or that degrade regardless of mileage. Check the condition of the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking and verify the service history to ensure the engine oil and brake fluid have been changed at the correct intervals. Given the lack of recorded faults, the primary risk is simply the effects of low-mileage ownership rather than any documented mechanical neglect.
