2016 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · YE65 AAV

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted on 12 August 2025 at 65,495 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This consistent streak of clean passes across the last five years indicates that the previous owners maintained the vehicle proactively and addressed any minor issues before they could escalate into MOT failures. The mileage pattern is exceptionally consistent for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. Between the September 2021 test at 38,769 miles and the August 2025 test at 65,495 miles, the car covered 26,726 miles, reflecting a steady usage profile. There are no signs of rapid accumulation or long periods of neglect that might suggest component degradation. The low mileage for a ten-year-old Mercedes-Benz suggests the drivetrain and suspension components have not been subjected to excessive stress. Because the MOT record shows no recurring faults or structural advisories, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than wear-related failure. A buyer should check for signs of cracking rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyrealls, which can become brittle over time despite low mileage. It is also prudent to inspect the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, as low-use vehicles can sometimes suffer from corrosion on the braking system if not driven regularly.
