AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most recent MOT on 2026-03-09 showed the 2006 Mercedes C160 SE AUTO passed with 103,784 miles. No defects were recorded, indicating the vehicle met safety and emissions standards at that time. This follows a sequence of previous passes, including a 2025-02-24 test at 102,745 miles and a 2024-03-03 test at 101,247 miles, all with no defects. The pattern suggests consistent compliance with MOT requirements over the last 18 months. A single failure entry from 2023-02-06 at 99,505 miles is noted, but no defects were recorded during that test. This may indicate a procedural issue or a minor technical failure that did not meet MOT criteria, though the absence of defect details limits analysis. The lack of recurring issues in subsequent tests implies the problem, if any, was resolved or non-critical. The vehicle’s mileage of 103,784 miles for a 20-year-old car is low, averaging around 5,189 miles per year. This could suggest lighter use or periods of inactivity, which might lead to wear on components like the battery, fluids, or electrical systems. However, the MOT history shows no evidence of such issues, and the consistent passes indicate the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets legal requirements.
