2015 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Diesel · CF65 EVR

The most recent MOT test on 2025-09-22 confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded at 107,762 miles. This marks the third consecutive pass without failings, suggesting consistent compliance with UK roadworthiness standards. However, the duplicate entry for 2024-09-30—where the vehicle was both passed and failed on the same mileage—indicates a potential administrative error rather than a mechanical issue. The absence of advisories or recurring faults in the latest tests implies no ongoing degradation in critical systems, though the 18-month gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests is unusually long for a vehicle of this age. The recorded mileage of 107,762 miles over approximately 11 years aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this class, averaging around 9,800 miles annually. There are no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity to suggest neglect or excessive wear. The 2023 tests, conducted just 29 days apart at nearly identical mileages (102,118 and 102,130), may indicate a routine double-check rather than a maintenance issue, but it does not reflect poorly on the vehicle’s upkeep. The lack of pre-MOT servicing records means no direct correlation between maintenance and MOT outcomes can be established, though the clean pass history suggests at least basic compliance with statutory checks. Given the absence of recorded defects, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear components not covered by the MOT, such as suspension bushes and coil springs—common points of failure in this model at this mileage. The braking system, while not explicitly flagged, warrants scrutiny for uneven wear or binding calipers, particularly if the vehicle exhibits uneven stopping. Corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe should be checked, as this model is prone to rust in these areas. The exhaust system should also be inspected for leaks or excessive sagging, which could indicate failing mounts or structural fatigue. The 2025-09-22 test’s clean bill suggests these areas may be intact, but visual and functional verification is essential to confirm.
