2009 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 2.0L Petrol · FG59 NVM

The 2009 Mercedes-Benz A-Class presents a stable and clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 15 October 2025 at 36,168 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of passes with no advisories or failures. The maintenance trend is steady with no worsening or emerging faults across the available history. Recorded mileage shows exceptionally low use for a 17-year-old vehicle. The odometer moved from 31,742 miles at the 11 October 2021 test to 36,168 miles by October 2025, a total of 4,426 miles over four years or roughly 1,100 miles per year. Annual increments stay under 1,800 miles each year, confirming light use with no gaps in testing and no sudden accumulation. The DVSA data is sparse on faults but clean throughout, showing no consumable neglect or mechanical intervention flagged. A buyer should still verify in person the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the long idle periods implied by low mileage. Standing time accelerates perishing of rubber components and surface corrosion on brake calipers even when tests show no defects. Structural integrity and exhaust emissions require a visual check for hidden rust and degraded hoses. The clean MOT record implies the previous owner kept basic upkeep current, but low mileage alone does not confirm drivetrain health without a physical inspection.
