2018 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.6L Petrol · FP18 TKC

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following the April 2025 test at 142,830 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with every recorded pass showing a clean sheet and no advisories logged at any stage. A duplicate failed entry exists for the same April 2025 date at identical mileage, yet no defects were cited, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage accumulation shows an aggressive use pattern for an eight-year-old car. The April 2023 test at 47,060 miles rose to 92,932 miles by April 2024, then jumped to 142,830 miles by April 2025. That equates to roughly 50,000 miles in the final year alone, far above the 17,854 annual average, pointing to a high-demand commuting or fleet-style operator. The sparse record of only five entries leaves large gaps between tests, so intermediate wear on consumables cannot be assessed from the data. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the 142,830-mile load. The clean MOT sheet offers no evidence of corrosion or structural concern, but high annual mileage accelerates drivetrain fatigue not captured by pass results. Verify service history matches the odometer jumps, as the rapid 2024 to 2025 accumulation suggests basic upkeep may have been deferred between garages.
