2021 Mercedes-Benz A 1.9L Diesel · 2 ROJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward deferred consumable upkeep. While it passed its latest test in December 2025 at 46,599 miles, the tester identified multiple advisories that were absent in previous years. The presence of thin brake pads and a worn nearside rear tyre indicates that the vehicle has reached a stage where routine wear items are beginning to require attention. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per annum. There is a steady progression between tests, moving from 24,196 miles in September 2023 to 34,592 miles in October 2024, and finally to 46,599 miles by late December 2025. This regular usage suggests the car has been used consistently rather than left stationary for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the health of engine seals, seals, and rubber components. A buyer must prioritize inspecting the braking system and tyres in person. The most recent record flagged thin rear brake pads on both the nearside and offside, necessitating an immediate replacement to prevent damage to the discs. The nearside rear tyre is also nearing the legal limit and shows uneven wear, which could indicate an alignment issue or simply the end of the component's life. Beyond these items, the clean records from 2023 and 2024 suggest the structural integrity and primary mechanical components remain sound.
