2016 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · CP66 CGG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available testing history. The most recent MOT test on 23 December 2025 at 64,397 miles passed with no defects recorded. This followed a curious failure just six days prior on 17 December 2025 at 64,381 miles, though the recorded defects for that specific failure suggest an administrative error or a minor non-testable issue that was rectified immediately before the re-test. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a low-mileage profile, averaging approximately 6,440 miles per annum. Between November 2022 at 50,475 miles and November 2024 at 62,168 miles, the vehicle covered 11,693 miles over two years. The recent interval shows only 2,229 miles between the November 2024 and December 2025 tests. This low annual mileage indicates that mechanical components and the drivetrain have likely experienced less stress compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or structural failures, a buyer should focus on the physical condition of components that age with time rather than distance. Low usage often leads to perished rubber such as suspension bushes, seals, and engine mounts. Inspect the brake discs for surface pitting or scoring, as infrequent use can cause oxidation to build up on the un-friction surfaces. The absence of recorded corrosion issues suggests the structural integrity remains sound, but a visual check of the underbody is still necessary to confirm no hidden rust has developed during periods of stationary use.
