2007 Mercedes-Benz B-Class 2.0L Diesel · CX07 PHJ

The vehicle presents a clean and stable maintenance record, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 November 2025 at 56,131 miles without any recorded defects or advisories. While the record shows a technical fail on the same date, the absence of listed defects suggests a administrative error or a minor rectification performed immediately on-site, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. This pattern of clean passes across the last four consecutive tests indicates a high standard of upkeep and suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a reliable operational level. The recorded mileage of 56,131 over a nineteen-year lifespan confirms a low-usage profile, averaging approximately 2,954 miles annually. Consistent progression between 45,650 miles in September 2022 and the current figure shows the car has remained in regular use rather than being left to sit for extended periods. This steady accumulation is preferable to long-term storage, as it reduces the likelihood of seized brake components, perished rubber seals, or fuel system degradation often found in dormant vehicles of this age. Despite the clean test history, a prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe mountings. Low-mileage Mercedes-Benz models of this era are prone to accelerated corrosion on structural components and brake lines if they have been exposed to salt or damp storage conditions. Check the condition of the brake discs for surface pitting and ensure the parking brake mechanism functions correctly, as these items often show signs of age-related deterioration even when the vehicle passes its annual inspection.
