2018 Mercedes-Benz C 1.9L Diesel · AF68 VFU

The vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 25 November 2025 at 135,449 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and every prior annual examination since January 2023 also closed without advisories or failures. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults and no recurring mechanical concerns across the observed period. Mileage accumulation sits well above typical for an eight-year-old 2018 Mercedes-Benz C. The record shows 55,976 miles on 10 January 2023, rising to 65,634 miles by 26 October 2023, then 81,761 miles on 22 October 2024 and 82,037 miles just ten days later on 1 November 2024. A substantial jump to 135,449 miles by 25 November 2025 indicates roughly 53,000 miles added in the final twelve months. The sparse test count and clean sheets mean we cannot infer skipped upkeep from failures, but the late-life high annual use implies heavier drivetrain and suspension loading than the early years. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the elevated late mileage. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories in the DVLA data is reassuring, yet standing moisture ingress and underbody condition are not captured by a pass with no defects. Verify service history covers the 2025 high-mileage period. Check tyre age and wiper condition as consumables, and confirm the cambelt or chain interval for this engine given 135,449 miles. The MOT record alone shows no red flags, but the rapid final-year use warrants scrutiny of gearbox and differential oil changes before purchase.
