2018 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · WG18 AAN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with a stable maintenance trend evidenced by the most recent 2025-07-11 MOT at 72,199 miles, which recorded no defects. The prior tests from 2024 and 2023 also passed without issues, indicating consistent compliance. However, a 2023-10-26 failure at 55,126 miles is noted, though no defects were recorded, suggesting a potential administrative or procedural anomaly. Overall, the absence of recurring mechanical failures in the last three tests implies reliable upkeep. The mileage progression aligns with an average of 9,025 miles annually, typical for an eight-year-old vehicle. Notable jumps include a 20,671-mile increase between 2022-06-03 (34,457 miles) and 2023-10-26 (55,126 miles), spanning 16 months, and a 7,308-mile rise from 2023-10-31 (55,191 miles) to 2024-07-22 (62,499 miles). These gaps may reflect periods of reduced usage or inconsistent tracking, but the MOT history remains largely uneventful, with no structural or safety-critical issues flagged. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, particularly given the high mileage, and inspect brake systems for wear, as these are common areas of degradation. The 2023 failure, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny of underlying issues. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on corrosion, exhaust emissions, and drivetrain alignment, as these are critical for long-term reliability despite the MOT records showing no immediate concerns.
