2016 MERCEDES-BENZ B-CLASS1.5L Diesel

The vehicle presents a highly stable maintenance profile with a clean record of recent passes. The most recent MOT on 8 October 2025 at 14,054 miles showed no defects, maintaining a consistent trend of passing without advisories for several consecutive years. This suggests the vehicle has been kept in a consistent state of repair, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues appearing in the official documentation. The mileage pattern indicates exceptionally low usage for a 2016 model, averaging roughly 1,400 miles per year. The data shows a steady, incremental increase in distance travelled, moving from 2,565 miles in October 2019 to 14,054 miles in October 2025. This low-mileage profile suggests the car has likely spent long periods stationary or has been used only for short, infrequent trips. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such usage patterns can sometimes lead to secondary issues like perished rubber seals or battery degradation. A single failure occurred on 20 October 2021 at 5,161 miles due to headlamp aim being too low, but the vehicle passed immediately upon retest. Aside from this minor adjustment, the record is devoid of any mentions of suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions failures. Because the vehicle has been driven so little, a prospective buyer should inspect the tyres for age-related cracking or flat spots and check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting that can occur when a car is not driven regularly. The absence of advisories regarding structural integrity or underside corrosion is a positive indicator, though the low mileage means a physical inspection of the suspension components and fluid levels is necessary to ensure that long periods of inactivity have not compromised the mechanical health of the Mercedes-Benz.
