2010 Mercedes-Benz C 3.0L Diesel · JG04 MEN

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status following the July 2025 test cycle, with the most recent pass dated 21 July 2025 at 114,267 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend is stable on paper, though the record reveals two failed tests in 2025 with no defects recorded, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. No advisories or structural concerns appear across the five-year span of data provided. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a 2010 Mercedes-Benz C-Class. The car covered 108,538 miles at the February 2024 test and reached 114,267 miles by April 2025, an increase of roughly 5,700 miles over fourteen months. A notable plateau occurs between April and July 2025 where the odometer moved only 20 miles across three tests, indicating the vehicle was largely stationary or subject to short local trips during that period. The sparse record shows no rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps. The absence of recorded defects across all entries means no recurring suspension bushes, coil spring fractures, binding calipers, or corrosion trends require flagging from the MOT data alone. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of brake disc thickness, underbody structural integrity, and exhaust emissions given the car's sixteen-year age. The two clean fails without defects imply the previous owner may have presented the vehicle prematurely or encountered tester refusal on non-mechanical grounds, not deferred consumable upkeep. Given the clean advisory history and low annual mileage of approximately 7,142 miles, the mechanical care appears adequate for a vehicle of this age. Prospective purchasers should verify service intervals independently and check for intermittent electrical faults not captured by MOT testing.
