2012 Mercedes-Benz C 6.2L Petrol · CE07 AMG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having maintained a clean record since a minor setback. The most recent MOT test in November 2025 at 90,410 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and safety components currently meet the statutory standard. Since the failure in late 2023, the maintenance trend has improved, with the two subsequent tests passing without any advisories. The mileage accumulation is consistent with low-use patterns for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,450 miles per annum. The data shows steady intervals between tests, such as 1,434 miles covered between October 2024 and November 2025, and another 3,509 miles in the preceding year. This consistent usage suggests the car has not been subjected to heavy long-distance stress, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage counterparts. The single failure in September 2023 at 85,437 miles involved both the nearside and offside front tyres being below the legal tread depth limit. While this was a consumable-related failure, it indicates a lapse in basic pre-test inspections by the previous owner. A buyer should still verify the current condition of the tyres to ensure they are not aged prematurely. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, a physical inspection should also focus on rubber degradation in the suspension bushes and hoses, as these components can perish over time regardless of the distance driven.
