2021 Mercedes-Benz A 1.3L Petrol · BW71 WNB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 1 June 2026 at 32,804 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, with the only recorded defect being a minor consumable item involving a defective front windscreen wiper. This represents an improvement over the 2024 test where multiple tyre issues were flagged, suggesting that the current owner is addressing basic maintenance requirements as they arise during annual testing. At 32,804 miles over five years, the car has averaged approximately 6,500 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-to-medium usage patterns. The data shows consistent intervals between tests, with 6,658 miles driven between August 2024 and June 2025, and another 7,638 miles covered before the 2026 test. This low mileage generally suggests reduced wear on major components like the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and brake rotors compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should inspect the front tyres in person, as the August 2024 advisory noted that both the nearside and offside front tyres were worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This pattern often indicates a need for a wheel alignment adjustment to prevent premature uneven scrubbing. While the 2025 test showed no mechanical defects, a physical check of the brake pads and discs remains advisable to ensure that the low mileage has not led to surface corrosion or seizing of the calipers during periods of inactivity.
