2010 Mercedes-Benz B-Class 1.5L Petrol · EY10 VLS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent test on 11 December 2025 at 91,087 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates that the previous owner has addressed the issues identified in prior years. While the history shows intermittent mechanical-related advis, the transition to a clean sheet in the latest inspection suggests the car is currently being maintained to an acceptable operational standard. At 16 years old, the recorded mileage of 91,087 miles is notably low, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 3,500 to 4,000 miles driven annually between 2021 and 2025. However, a significant mileage gap exists between January 2021 and December 2022, where the vehicle covered over 12,000 miles. Such fluctuations can indicate uneven wear on rubber components and fluid degradation despite low overall mileage. A physical inspection should focus on the braking system and suspension, as the December 2023 test flagged corroded rear brake pipes covered in grease. While these were likely treated, the buyer should verify that no further corrosion is present or fluid leaks are weeping from the unions. The December 2024 advisory regarding both front tyres being near the legal limit and worn on the edges often points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Checking the condition of the control arms and shock absorbers is essential to ensure the low mileage has not resulted in dry rot or perished rubber components over time.
