2016 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · SK 2215

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 16 October 2025 at 36,079 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent five-year trend of first-time passes without a single recorded failure or advisory, indicating a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,608 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and predictable, rising from 23,754 miles in October 2021 to 36,079 miles by October 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps that would suggest commercial use or periods of extreme neglect. While the MOT record is flawless, the low annual mileage introduces specific risks associated with vehicle dormancy. A buyer should physically inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting and check for binding calipers, as components can seize when not exercised regularly. The age of the tyres should be verified via the DOT code, as rubber perishes over time regardless of tread depth. The absence of any flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion in the DVSA data suggests the chassis remains in good condition. However, a manual check of the battery health and fluid levels is advised, as low-use vehicles often suffer from premature battery degradation and moisture buildup in the oil.
