2011 Mercedes-Benz C220 Sport ED125 CDI Blue-CY A 2.1L Gas bi fuel · BR08 AAA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in January 2026 at 124,572 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a recurring pattern of immediate failures followed by passes. The car failed in both December 2025 and November 2024, yet secured passes shortly after each failure. This suggests the previous owner addresses specific mechanical faults only when necessitated by the annual test requirement rather than following a preventative maintenance schedule. With a recorded mileage of 124,572 miles over 15 years, the vehicle averages approximately 8,300 miles per annum. This aligns with typical usage patterns for a diesel saloon of this age. The data shows consistent use in recent years, with nearly 4,000 miles covered between the August 2023 and November 2024, and another 3,000 miles between November 2024 and January 2026. This regular activity indicates the vehicle is used frequently, which generally helps prevent the engine seals and braking components seizing from long periods of standing. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the areas that triggered the recent failures. Since the record shows no specific defects on the failed tests, the issues were likely related to easily rectified items such as bulbs, wiper blades, or minor emissions adjustments. Given the age and mileage, focus should be placed on the structural integrity of the chassis for corrosion and the condition of the suspension bushes and bushings. Check for signs of leaking brake calipers or worn brake discs, as these are common wear points on the Mercedes C-Class at this interval.
