2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · CV17 ABZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 2 August 2025 at 81,396 miles where no defects were recorded. This result indicates that the car is currently in a mechanically sound state and meets all primary safety and emissions standards. While a test failure occurred in April 2024 just four days prior to a successful retest, immediate rectification of the issue suggests the owner is proactive in addressing identified faults to keep the vehicle roadworthy. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per annum. Between February 2022 at 42,051 miles and February 2023 at 52,502 miles, the car covered roughly 10,000 miles, showing steady usage. A more significant gap occurred between April 2024 and August 2025, where 14,158 miles were added, yet this remains within typical operational parameters. This regular accumulation prevents the accelerated wear associated with high-mileage vehicles while avoiding the seal degradation and brake issues often seen with long periods of inactivity. Given the clean nature of the most recent records, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that fall outside the MOT scope. A buyer should examine the condition of the suspension bushes and control arm components for tearing, as these are common points of failure on this chassis as they approach ten years. Checking the brake discs for uneven wear or thinning and verifying the tyre tread for consistent wear will ensure the vehicle maintains the high standard reflected in the digital history. Because the record shows no recurring structural corrosion or persistent mechanical failures, the vehicle appears to have followed a well-managed maintenance schedule.
