2014 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Diesel · FG64 FUB

The 2025‑08‑26 MOT at 131,711 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness. All previous tests from 2020 onward have also shown no failures, indicating a stable maintenance trend rather than a pattern of worsening or improving condition. The mileage has risen steadily from 39,172 miles in September 2017 to 131,711 miles in August 2025, averaging just over 10,900 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 12‑year‑old vehicle. The interval between the September 2017 tests shows a seven‑day gap with identical mileage, indicating a retest after remedial work, while subsequent records display regular annual increments with no unexplained lulls. Recurring observations include near‑side front tyre wear on the inner edge (2020), a small cut on the near‑side front inner wall (2018), rear brake pads described as thin in 2017, and a supplementary restraint system warning lamp in the 2017 failure, all of which have been cleared in later passes, suggesting that owners have addressed these issues promptly. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, examine the brake calipers and discs for corrosion or uneven wear, verify tyre tread depth and edge wear patterns, test the airbag warning lamp and windscreen condition, and look for any signs of structural rust or previous repair welds.
