2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · CK65 TBY

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class presents a generally stable recent maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 23 October 2025 at 75,975 miles. This follows unbroken first-time passes in October 2024, October 2023, and late October 2022, indicating that the vehicle has maintained a compliant standard on annual test days over the last four cycles. The historical record does contain a significant failure on 24 October 2022 for severely depleted rear brake pads measuring under 1.5 millimetres alongside an engine malfunction lamp fault, though these immediate defects were rectified prior to the same-day pass. The vehicle has accumulated 75,975 miles over roughly eleven years, averaging approximately 6,900 miles annually. This mileage accumulation sits right around the national average for a passenger car of this age and shows consistent annual use without prolonged periods of storage or excessive high-mileage strain. The testing cadence has remained strictly annual every October, providing a predictable paper trail of roadworthiness assessments since the vehicle entered service. A physical inspection must prioritize the rear braking system given the 2022 failure involving dangerously thin brake pads, requiring a close measurement of brake disc thickness and pad wear across all four corners. The engine management system warrants careful diagnostic scanning to verify that the historical malfunction indicator lamp defect has not returned or left latent fault codes in the electronic control unit. Buyers should also inspect the steering geometry and front suspension components for wear, keeping in mind the nearside front tyre shoulder wear flagged as an advisory during the October 2019 test at an earlier mileage point.
