2012 Mercedes-Benz C 6.2L Petrol · JB62 AMG

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 18 December 2025 at 19,760 miles returned no defects or advisories, indicating that the car remains in a technically sound condition. This streak of passes suggests that the vehicle has not encountered significant mechanical failures or structural degradation over the last five years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,411 miles per year. Between November 2020 and December 2025, the car covered only 357 miles, moving from 19,403 to 19,760 miles. This extreme low-usage profile indicates the vehicle likely sat stationary for long periods. While this limits wear and tear on the engine drivetrain and suspension components, it often introduces specific risks related to age-related decay of rubber parts that a standard MOT does not fully capture. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to long-term storage rather than high mileage. Inspect the tyres for flat spotting and sidewall cracking, as the rubber compound may have perished due to lack of movement. The brake discs require a check for surface corrosion or pitting, and the calipers should be tested for seized pistons from lack of use. Additionally, examine the chassis and suspension bushes for structural rust, as low mileage does not prevent the natural oxidation of metal components over a decade.
