MERCEDES-BENZ A-CLASS1999 · 1.7L Diesel

The vehicle presents a roadworthy status as of the 10 April 2026 test at 57,566 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every annual examination from 24 January 2023 through to the latest date returning a clean result. A failed entry on 10 April 2026 at identical mileage carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage shows light use for a 27-year-old car, rising from 51,672 miles at the January 2023 test to 57,566 miles by April 2026. That equates to roughly 2,132 miles per year. The gaps between tests are narrow, with the longest stretch being fourteen months between January 2023 and March 2024. No rapid accumulation or suspicious jumps appear in the data, and the clean advisories across all dates suggest the previous keeper kept basic consumable wear in check. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural corrosion points, suspension bushes, and brake discs given the vehicle's age. The MOT record flags no outstanding advisories, but low annual mileage often masks perished rubber components and seized calipers from prolonged standing. Verify the April 2026 failure reason with DVSA, as the zero-defect record offers no technical explanation for the rejected certificate.
