2015 Mercedes-Benz B-Class 1.5L Diesel · JA12 HOL

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz B-Class presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 17 September 2025 at 88,874 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every annual examination from 2023 through 2025 returning a pass once a same-day failed-then-passed retest is accounted for. No advisories or mechanical faults appear at any stage, indicating the previous keeper addressed requirements before each expiry. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an eleven-year-old car, rising from 75,530 miles at the 29 September 2023 test to 82,816 miles by 24 September 2024, then 88,874 miles by September 2025. That equates to roughly 6,300 to 7,000 miles per year across the recorded span, below the 8,079-mile annual average implied by the lifetime figure. The record shows no gaps beyond the standard twelve-month cycle and no rapid accumulation that would point to heavy drivetrain or suspension loading. The two failed entries dated 29 September 2023 and 17 September 2025 both list no defects, which suggests administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than a mechanical rejection. Because the DVSA data carries zero advisories on brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the history alone gives no cause for concern over serious wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable items the MOT does not routinely flag in detail. Check tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, test the front and rear brake calipers for binding, and inspect underside subframes for early corrosion. The clean record implies reasonable upkeep, but a car of this age warrants a hands-on check of steering joints and dampers before purchase.
