2017 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.6L Petrol · AF02 ERN

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz A-Class presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 May 2025 at 49,305 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. The prior year's test on 21 May 2024 at 44,114 miles also passed cleanly, as did the 16 May 2023 and 20 May 2022 tests. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the nine-year record. Mileage sits low for the vehicle's age at 49,305 miles, averaging roughly 5,478 miles per year. The record shows steady annual accumulation: 33,634 miles in May 2022, 38,139 in May 2023, 44,114 in May 2024, and 49,305 by May 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps exist. The clean history with no corrosion, suspension, brake, or emissions flags suggests the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current despite the light use. One anomaly warrants scrutiny. The car failed on 12 May 2025 at 49,305 miles yet passed one day later on 13 May 2025 with no defects listed on either entry. This points to an administrative or documentation error rather than a genuine mechanical fault, but the buyer should confirm with the test centre that no suppressed defect exists. Given the sparse and clean MOT data, a physical inspection should still verify items the tests did not deeply assess. Check suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness for age-related degradation. Inspect underneath for structural corrosion and confirm the exhaust emissions match the clean record. The low mileage implies the car may have stood idle for periods, so examine tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots from storage.
