2022 Mercedes-Benz EQA 350 AMG LNE Premium 4MATIC Electric · AE55 ACE

The latest MOT test conducted on 13 May 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. When reviewed alongside the previous test from October 2025, the overall maintenance trend appears stable. The vehicle has consistently met the required safety and environmental standards, and the absence of any major failures or recurring mechanical faults suggests a vehicle that has been kept in a roadworthy condition. The recorded mileage of 8,260 miles over approximately four years is exceptionally low, averaging roughly 2,065 miles per year. While this indicates minimal wear on the electric drivetrain and interior trim, such low usage often implies the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. This usage profile shifts the mechanical risk from wear-and-tear to age-related degradation, where components may fail due to lack of use or environmental exposure rather than operational mileage. A previous advisory noted the nearside front tyre was worn close to the legal limit on the outer edge. A prospective buyer should carefully inspect the current tyres for similar uneven wear patterns, which could indicate a misalignment of the steering or suspension geometry. During a test drive, the driver should feel for any pulling to one side or unusual vibrations through the steering wheel, as these symptoms would confirm the need for a professional four-wheel alignment to prevent premature tyre failure. Given the low mileage and age, physical inspection should focus on components that degrade over time. Examine the tyre sidewalls for perishing or hairline cracking, as rubber compounds harden and lose grip regardless of remaining tread. Check the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or evidence of binding calipers, which can occur when a vehicle stands for extended periods. Finally, verify that calendar-based maintenance has been performed, specifically the replacement of brake fluid and the health of the 12V auxiliary battery, as these are critical for the reliability of the vehicle's electronic systems.
