2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · DAD 385K

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz C presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 February 2026 at 63,600 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Every annual examination from 2022 through 2026 achieved a clean pass, showing no advisories or recurring mechanical faults across the vehicle's history. Annual mileage sits at a modest 7,067 miles against the car's nine-year life, confirmed by the recorded figures. The test on 11 March 2022 at 25,936 miles, rising to 34,427 by 17 March 2023, then 43,010 on 21 March 2024, 54,665 on 3 March 2025, and 63,600 on 27 February 2026, reflects steady yearly use of roughly 8,000 to 9,000 miles. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear in the sequence. The DVSA record is sparse in faults, which indicates consistent basic upkeep by prior keepers rather than deferred intervention. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age. Low mileage can mask degraded rubber components and corroding subframes through limited thermal cycling. The clean MOT history offers no flag for structural integrity or exhaust emissions, yet standing periods between short journeys may conceal minor fluid leaks or binding calipers not caught in a static test. Pre-purchase checks ought to confirm tyre sidewall condition and underbody corrosion absent from the advisories. The previous owners cleared each test without defect, suggesting disciplined servicing, but a physical appraisal remains prudent on a near-decade-old premium saloon.
