2017 Mercedes-Benz B-Class 1.6L Petrol · GY67 WKX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean pass in the May 2026 test at 42,352 miles. This most recent result shows no defects, indicating that previous issues have been addressed. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, moving from a period of recurring tyre-related failures to a clean record over the last twelve months. The vehicle has covered 42,352 miles over its nine-year lifespan, averaging approximately 4,700 miles per year. This low annual mileage suggests light usage, which typically reduces wear on drivetrain components and engine internals. The mileage has increased steadily from 20,754 miles in May 2021 to 42,352 miles in May 2026, showing consistent, albeit infrequent, use rather than long periods of total inactivity. The MOT history reveals a recurring pattern of tyre-related failures. The tester flagged exposed cords on the offside front tyre in May 2021, perishing tyres in May 2022, a cut to the nearside front tyre in May 2023, and a structural bulge on the offside front tyre in May 2025. These failures suggest that while the vehicle is being maintained, the previous owners may have overlooked tyre condition or deferred replacement until the annual inspection. A buyer should inspect the current tread depth and sidewall integrity of all four tyres to ensure they are not nearing the end of their service life. Aside from the tyre issues, the only other mechanical concern noted was thin front brake pads in May 2024. While the 2026 test shows no current brake defects, a physical inspection of the brake discs for scoring and the pads for remaining friction material is advisable. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check for any signs of rubber perishing on suspension bushes or seals, as low-use vehicles can sometimes suffer from age-related degradation of flexible components.
