2015 Mercedes-Benz C 4.0L Petrol · FN65 ERO

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz C presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 September 2025 at 82,765 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual test on 6 September 2024 at 73,643 miles also passed clean. The only blemish is a fail on 27 August 2024 at 73,443 miles, which the record shows with no defects logged, indicating an administrative or unrecorded correction rather than a mechanical fault. Across the five-year span the vehicle has shown no recurring advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or emissions. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an eleven-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,524 miles per year. The record moves from 39,545 miles at the July 2022 test to 52,884 miles by August 2023, then jumps to 73,443 miles by late August 2024, a near 20,000-mile year that suggests heavier use in that period. Distance covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests was a modest 9,122 miles. The history is sparse on faults, with clean sheets throughout, so no wear-driven patterns emerge from the data itself. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car's age, as MOT passes with no advisories do not rule out early-stage rust on sills or subframes. The suspension and braking systems showed no tester-flagged issues, but the 2024 fail with no listed defect warrants confirmation that any required rectification was properly completed and documented by the previous owner. Given the clean trailing record, focus the viewing on tyre condition, wiper blades, and fluid intervals rather than major mechanical risk. The absence of repeated advisories implies the prior keeper addressed consumables without neglect, though the unexplained 2024 failure means a verification of that event's cause remains prudent before purchase.
