Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough mech
When viewing this vehicle, prioritize checking the recent work carried out following the September 2025 MOT failure. Ensure that the brake fluid level has been corrected and that the windscreen washer system is fully functional. You should also ask for evidence of a service history to complement the MOT data, as the MOT alone does not confirm regular maintenance.
Negotiate based on the tyre history; the 2024 MOT highlighted issues with cracking, perishing, and wear on multiple tyres (nearside rear, offside front, and offside rear). Check the current tread depth and condition of all four tyres to ensure they are not nearing the limits seen in previous years. Given the 1.6L petrol engine, verify that the service intervals have been strictly adhered to.
The 1595cc petrol engine is generally efficient for its class, though real-world fuel economy will depend on driving style and load. As a 2017 model, tax bands and insurance groups will vary based on the specific trim level, but it typically sits in a mid-range insurance group.
Maintenance costs for a Mercedes-Benz can be higher than for non-premium brands. Based on the MOT history, you should budget for more frequent tyre replacements and periodic brake component servicing. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, is approximately £1,400-£1,800.
Specifically inspect the braking system; the 2025 failure noted brake fluid was close to the minimum mark, and the 2022 test noted thin offside front brake pads. Ensure the brake fluid has been changed and the pads are in good condition.
Examine all tyres for signs of perishing or sidewall cracking, as this was a recurring theme in the 2024 MOT results. Additionally, check the windscreen washer system to ensure the pump and nozzles are providing sufficient liquid, addressing the failure noted in the most recent test.
This 2017 white Mercedes-Benz B-Class (AV67AXP) has covered 45,157 miles since its first registration in September 2017. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, including one failure in September 2025 due to low brake fluid and insufficient washer liquid. While it has passed its tests, the records indicate frequent advisories and failures concerning tyres and brake components.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 80.2% average MOT pass rate, with common failure points being tyres, coil springs, and drive shaft joints.
