2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC 2.1L Diesel · AF17 ABN

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 9 April 2025 at 68,500 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of first-time passes dating back to March 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and kept in a state of constant compliance. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a nine-year-old executive SUV. Between the March 2021 test at 32,677 miles and the April 2025 test at 68,500 miles, the car covered 35,823 miles over roughly four years. This averages to approximately 8,900 miles per year, showing regular use without periods of prolonged standing that often lead to seized calipers or perished seals. The absence of any advisories across five consecutive tests is rare for a vehicle of this age. The tester flagged no issues with suspension bushes, brake disc thickness, or exhaust emissions throughout the recorded history. There is no evidence of structural corrosion or recurring mechanical failures, suggesting the previous owner adhered to a strict preventative maintenance schedule rather than reacting only to MOT failures. A physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that the MOT may not flag as urgent. Check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads, as these are consumables that may be nearing the end of their life despite a clean MOT certificate. Verify the service history stamps to ensure the engine oil and transmission fluids were changed at the manufacturer's recommended intervals, as the MOT record confirms legality but not necessarily full mechanical servicing.
