2018 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · KM18 AEE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with no defects recorded in its most recent February 2026 MOT at 44,059 miles. The maintenance trend remains stable, as all five consecutive annual tests from 2022 to 2026 have passed without issues. This consistency suggests the previous owner prioritized regular servicing, with no emerging faults in critical systems like brakes, suspension, or emissions. The absence of advisories or failures over eight years indicates a well-maintained vehicle, though low mileage may limit exposure to wear on components like tyres and transmission. The mileage pattern reflects minimal annual usage, averaging 5,507 miles per year since 2018. The longest gap between tests occurred between January 2023 (27,342 miles) and February 2024 (30,185 miles), a 2,837-mile increase over 13 months, which aligns with typical light use. Subsequent tests show steady progression, with no abrupt spikes that might indicate excessive strain on the drivetrain or suspension. This low-mileage profile reduces wear on consumables but could mean certain systems, such as the exhaust or cooling components, have not been fully exercised, warranting closer inspection. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs, as prolonged inactivity may cause stiffness or dry rot. Check for corrosion around the chassis and exhaust system, particularly if the vehicle was stored for extended periods. While no brake-related issues were noted, inspect the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear, as low mileage can sometimes mask binding or uneven pressure. The absence of structural defects in the MOT history is reassuring, but a physical inspection is recommended to confirm the vehicle’s overall integrity and readiness for regular use.
