2013 Mercedes-Benz B-Class 1.8L Diesel · CV13 RJU

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz B-Class presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 July 2025 at 14,285 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the full history, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test regime. Recorded mileage sits at 14,285 miles against thirteen years of age, an average of roughly 1,099 miles per year. The tester logged 11,781 miles on 21 September 2021, then 11,884 on 27 September 2022, 12,472 on 10 October 2023, 13,292 on 1 October 2024, and 14,285 on 2 July 2025. Annual accumulation stays under 1,000 miles in every interval. Such low use implies long stationary periods rather than steady daily running. The clean record gives no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion to chase. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of underbody condition and brake caliper freedom, since standing vehicles rot and seize where testers saw no fault. Verify cambelt or chain service against Mercedes schedules, as low mileage hides elapsed-time wear. Check tyre sidewall cracking and flat spots from storage, plus fluid degradation in brake and coolant systems. The previous owner clearly kept the car lightly used and test-compliant, but minimal miles do not equal zero deterioration. A pre-purchase examination remains sensible before funds transfer.
