2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · CF65 ENN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a shift in the maintenance trend regarding consumable components. While the car maintained a clean record with no recorded defects between 2022 and 2024, the October 2025 test at 82,166 miles flagged advisories for all four tyres. The presence of uneven wear, specifically on the inner edges of the rear tyres, suggests a developing alignment issue or worn suspension components that were not addressed prior to the test. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a typical eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between August 2024 (73,793 miles) and October 2025 (82,166 miles), where the car covered nearly 8,400 miles in just fourteen months. This acceleration in mileage compared to the more stagnant intervals of nine thousand miles seen between 2022 and 2024 likely explains the sudden degradation of the tyres observed in the latest MOT result. A buyer should prioritise an inspection of the suspension geometry to address the uneven tyre wear noted in the 2025 record. The tester should check the control arm bushes and tie-rod ends for play which could be causing the inner-edge scrubbing. Given the clean history of structural and mechanical failures over the previous three years, the vehicle appears well-maintained, but the recent advisory on the tyres requires immediate attention and a professional wheel alignment check to prevent premature failure of new rubber.
