2020 Mercedes-Benz A 1.5L Diesel · JB15 SSS

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status following the October 2025 test at 93,426 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. A peculiar entry shows a fail and a pass logged on the same date of 23 October 2025 at identical mileage, both with no defects recorded, which suggests an administrative retest rather than a genuine mechanical defect. The odometer reads 93,426 miles against a 2020 build, equating to roughly 15,571 miles per year and placing this example in the high-use bracket for its age. Mileage climbed from 79,416 at the March 2024 test to 81,268 by September 2024, then rose sharply to 93,426 by October 2025, indicating around 12,000 miles added in the final thirteen months. The DVSA data is sparse, with only five entries and no recorded advisories, so the clean sheet offers little insight into wear on consumables or hidden corrosion. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high annual mileage and the lack of any advisory history to confirm those items remain within tolerance. The same-day fail and pass with zero defects means no structural integrity, exhaust emissions, or binding calipers were cited, yet the absence of records does not confirm component health. Given the six-year age and near-94,000 miles, expect tyre and wiper blade renewal to be due purely on wear cycles even though the MOT log stayed silent on them.
