2021 Mercedes-Benz A 180 AMG Line ED Premium + A 1.3L Petrol · EN71 KTA

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz A 180 shows a stable and clean roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 29 November 2025 at 45,811 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior test on 7 November 2024 at 36,973 miles also passed with no advisories. Across both examinations the vehicle presented no mechanical or structural faults, indicating consistent upkeep by its previous keeper. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a five-year-old car. The record spans just two tests, covering 8,838 miles between November 2024 and November 2025, an annualised rate near 9,000 miles. No rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps appear in the DVSA data, though the sparse two-entry history limits visibility of any intermediate wear patterns outside the tested dates. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection despite the unblemished MOT record. The absence of advisories on coil springs, suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion does not preclude wear hidden between annual tests. Given the car's age, examine the front control arm bushes and rear trailing arm mounts for early cracking, and check brake caliper slide movement after standing periods. Verify the service history matches the low defect count. Two consecutive clean passes suggest disciplined maintenance, yet confirm cambelt or chain interval compliance and inspect exhaust emissions hardware. The clean record is a positive signal, but physical checks remain essential before purchase.
