2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 2.1L Diesel · JO11 TCH

The vehicle maintains a clean and stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent string of pass results in the most recent annual inspections. The current MOT, conducted on 16 April 2025 at 72,969 miles, confirms the vehicle remains free of recorded defects. While the 2024 testing cycle included a brief failure on 16 April 2024, the subsequent pass the following day suggests a minor administrative or immediate rectification issue rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The absence of recurring advisories across the last four years indicates a high standard of preventative maintenance. At 72,969 miles over a fifteen-year lifespan, the vehicle averages approximately 4,865 miles per annum, which is significantly lower than the typical usage for a Range Rover of this vintage. This low mileage suggests the vehicle has likely been used for light duty or occasional travel rather than high-speed motorway commuting. The steady, predictable accumulation of miles between 2022 and 2025 shows the vehicle has remained in regular use, which is preferable to long-term storage that often leads to seized calipers, perished rubber seals, or fuel system degradation. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the complex air suspension system and the condition of the chassis, as these are common areas of concern for this model regardless of the clean MOT history. Given the age of the vehicle, check the underside for signs of corrosion on the subframes and brake lines, which may not always be flagged if they have not yet reached the threshold for an advisory. Verify that the electronic parking brake engages and disengages smoothly, and listen for any knocking from the suspension bushes during a test drive, as these components often wear due to age rather than strictly mileage-based usage.
