2017 Mercedes-Benz B-Class 1.5L Diesel · EA17 AFZ

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 13 June 2025 at 42,826 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage pattern is irregular but generally low for a nine year old car. Between July 2021 and June 2022, the vehicle covered only 569 miles, suggesting it spent significant time stationary. A more substantial increase occurred between May 2023 and May 2024, where the odometer rose from 10,334 to 26,028 miles. The most recent interval saw a further increase to 42,826 miles by June 2025. This shift from very light use to more regular driving is notable but has not yet resulted in any flagged mechanical failures. Despite the lack of MOT failures, the history of low usage and periods of standing necessitates a physical check of rubber components. A buyer should inspect the tyres for age related cracking or flat spots, even if the tread depth is legal. The braking system requires a manual check for binding calipers or pitted brake discs, as low mileage vehicles often suffer from corrosion in the braking assembly due to inactivity. The absence of any advisories regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion is positive. However, given the low overall mileage, verifying the condition of the engine oil and other perishable fluids is advisable to ensure the vehicle was not neglected during its periods of dormancy.
