2008 Mercedes-Benz C 1.8L Petrol · BD 6315

This vehicle presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 11 December 2025 at 64,623 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to early 2023, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for an 18-year-old car, averaging roughly 3,590 miles per year. The record shows a steady, low-volume increase in usage, moving from 60,557 miles in January 2023 to 64,623 miles by December 2025. This gradual accumulation of approximately 4,000 miles annually indicates the car has been used for light duties rather than long-distance commuting. A failure on 30 January 2023 at 60,557 miles was resolved on the same day, though the record lists no specific defects for that failure. This is likely a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical fault. The absence of any advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions over the last three years is unusual for a vehicle of this vintage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished rubber seals, flat-spotted tyres, or seized brake calipers due to long periods of standing. Check the condition of the brake fluid and oil for signs of moisture contamination. Inspect the underbody for surface corrosion, as the MOT record does not provide a detailed structural health report beyond the pass result.
