2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Diesel · EX16 ABF

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean roadworthiness status at the most recent inspection. The April 2025 test at 61,755 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of successful testing throughout 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the vehicle has been kept in a consistent state of repair without recurring mechanical or structural issues. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical ten-year usage pattern for a vehicle of this age. The data shows a steady progression from 40,247 miles in May 2022 to 61,755 miles in April 2025. This averages out to approximately 7,100 miles per year over the recorded period, which aligns with the expected light-to-moderate usage for a Mercedes-Benz A-Class. The absence of sudden mileage spikes or significant gaps in the testing history indicates regular, predictable operation. The single failure recorded on May 22, 2023, at 48,012 miles, was resolved within three days, as evidenced by the successful pass on May 25, 2023, at 48,075 miles. While the specific reason for that failure was not documented, the rapid resolution suggests a minor consumable or adjustment was addressed. Because the most recent two years of testing have been entirely clear of advisories, there are no immediate red flags regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. A physical inspection should focus on verifying the current condition of consumables that are not captured by the MOT, such as tyre tread depth and brake pad thickness. Given the relatively low annual mileage, the buyer should check for any signs of age-related degradation in rubber components like suspension bushings or drive belts, which can perish even if they have not reached their mechanical wear limit. The overall record suggests a well-maintained vehicle with a predictable service history.
