2017 Mercedes-Benz C 4.0L Petrol · 90 FAO

The vehicle has maintained consistent roadworthiness, with all MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent April 2025 test at 29,425 miles confirmed compliance, indicating no urgent mechanical or structural issues. The absence of advisories or failures across eight consecutive annual tests suggests a stable maintenance regime, with no emerging trends in wear or component degradation. The mileage progression reveals a low annual average of 3,269 miles, unusual for a nine-year-old vehicle. A significant jump from 22,063 miles in June 2021 to 27,154 miles in June 2022 implies accelerated usage during that period, potentially stressing consumables like tyres and brake pads. Subsequent tests show gradual increases, with no evidence of rapid wear or corrosion. The sparse record, devoid of minor faults, suggests either meticulous care or limited exposure to harsh driving conditions. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should verify suspension components, particularly coil springs and bushes, given the low mileage’s potential to mask age-related stiffness. Brake discs and calipers should be inspected for corrosion, as prolonged inactivity can lead to binding or uneven wear. The exhaust system and structural integrity warrant scrutiny, as low-mileage vehicles may develop rust in hidden areas. No advisories indicate no immediate risks, but physical inspection remains critical to confirm the vehicle’s condition aligns with its recorded maintenance.
