Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Prioritise the verification of the full service history, specifically looking for regular oil and filter changes required for the 2.1L diesel engine. While the MOT record is clean, you should confirm that the rear tyres have been replaced or maintained since the 2023 advisory regarding wear.
Negotiate based on any missing service records or upcoming maintenance intervals. Given the vehicle's age, ensure that the diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been used for occasional long-distance runs to prevent clogging, as is common with diesel engines of this era.
The 2143cc diesel engine provides a balance of fuel efficiency and motorway capability, though it will be subject to standard diesel road tax rates for 2013 vehicles. Insurance costs will be moderate, typical for a C-Class of this engine size.
Maintenance costs for Mercedes-Benz vehicles tend to be higher than for mass-market brands. While the low mileage may reduce immediate wear-and-tear costs, expect higher premiums for genuine parts and specialised labour.
Focus your inspection on the suspension arms and headlamps, as these are identified as top MOT failure reasons across the wider C-Class dataset. Check the current tread depth and condition of the rear tyres, referencing the wear advisory from October 2023.
Perform a thorough check of the silver exterior for any age-related corrosion or paint degradation. Ensure all electrical components are functioning correctly, as headlamp failures are a known trend for this model aggregate.
This silver 2013 Mercedes-Benz C-Class has covered 88,830 miles, which is below the model average for its age. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes, including the most recent test in May 2026, with only a single advisory for rear tyre wear recorded in 2023. It presents as a stable example of the 2143cc diesel variant.
The C-Class demonstrates a solid reliability profile with an average MOT pass rate of 82.4% across 416,682 analysed vehicles.
