2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · CT15 DKY

The Mercedes-Benz C presents as roadworthy following the August 2025 test cycle, with a clean pass recorded at 116,602 miles on 6 August 2025. The maintenance trend is stable, showing no advisories or defects across the five-year MOT span from 2022 to 2025. The single failure on 5 August 2025 at 116,600 miles listed no defects, indicating a administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault, corrected by the pass one day later. Annual mileage averages close to 10,600 miles against an eleven-year lifespan, a typical use profile for this model. The records show steady accumulation: 71,048 miles in July 2022, 85,128 in July 2023, 100,935 in August 2024, and 116,602 by August 2025. The roughly 15,000-mile yearly increments reflect consistent private or light commercial use with no standing periods or sudden high-use spikes. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, carrying zero advisories throughout, which limits deeper wear inference. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness given the car has passed eleven years without flagged consumable wear. Absence of advisories does not confirm component condition, only that testers found nothing exceeding test limits on the day. The clean history suggests prior owners kept basic upkeep current, yet the 2025 failure with no recorded defect warrants confirmation the V5C and test certificate match the DVSA entry. Given the mileage and age, examine underbody structural integrity for corrosion and check exhaust emissions against current standards during any pre-purchase assessment. The vehicle's record implies disciplined servicing, but in-person checks on tyre tread depth and wiper blades remain sensible given these are routine wear items absent from the MOT narrative.
