2018 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Diesel · KB03 AMY

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 18 August 2025 at 52,251 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates dating back to August 2023, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets DVSA standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for an eight year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,531 miles per year. The distance covered between the August 2023 test at 40,159 miles and the August 2024 test at 47,841 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 7,682 miles over that year. Usage slowed slightly in the following twelve months, with only 4,410 miles added by the August 2025 test. There are no erratic mileage jumps or suspicious gaps that would suggest undisclosed heavy use or prolonged periods of standing. The absence of any recorded advisories across the last three years is uncommon and suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance. No issues regarding brake disc wear, suspension bushes, or tyre tread have been flagged by testers. The record shows no history of structural corrosion or exhaust emissions failures, which are common pain points for vehicles of this age. A physical inspection should still focus on consumables that may not have triggered an MOT failure but require routine replacement. Check the service history for evidence of oil changes and filter replacements, as the MOT record does not confirm internal engine maintenance. Inspect the condition of the brake pads and tyre depths to ensure they have not reached their limit since the August 2025 test.
