2019 Mercedes-Benz A 1.5L Diesel · KM69 AAV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 20 May 2025 at 91,396 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test on the same day at 91,392 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative failure rather than a mechanical deficiency. Mileage accumulation has increased significantly in the last two years. Between October 2022 and May 2023, the car covered 8,193 miles. However, the jump from 68,387 miles in April 2024 to 91,396 miles by May 2025 shows a rapid increase of 23,009 miles in just over a year. This high annual average puts additional stress on the drivetrain and chassis compared to typical usage for a seven year old vehicle. The MOT record is unusually clean, showing no advisories for brake disc wear, suspension bushes, or tyre tread across multiple years. Such a sterile history on a high mileage car is rare and may indicate that maintenance was performed at independent garages without being reflected in the MOT advisory system. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the consumables. Given the 23,000 mile surge in the final year, check the remaining depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads. Inspect the suspension components for play and check for any signs of oil leaks from the engine or gearbox, as these wear items are likely nearing the end of their service life due to the high mileage.
