2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · KO66 OYV

The vehicle presents a stable and highly favorable maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 5 February 2026 at 52,354 miles. The tester recorded zero defects, indicating the Mercedes currently meets all roadworthiness standards without compromise. This unbroken string of passes reflects diligent upkeep and a lack of recurring mechanical or structural faults. At nine years old with 52,354 miles recorded, the annual accumulation sits at roughly 5,817 miles, which is notably low for its age. The mileage progression is steady and consistent, moving from 36,795 miles in February 2023 to 43,403 miles in January 2024, then 47,046 miles in January 2025, and finally 52,354 miles in February 2026. This equates to an average yearly increase of approximately 4,000 to 5,300 miles, ruling out rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps. Such low-mileage usage typically spares high-wear consumables, though prolonged stationary periods can degrade rubber components and cause localized corrosion. Despite the pristine recent record, the failed test on 9 February 2023 at 36,795 miles warrants attention, particularly as no defects are officially recorded against that failure. This anomaly suggests an aborted test or a data recording error rather than a documented mechanical fault. Given the low annual mileage, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to deterioration from light use. Check the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, and inspect the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion that can develop when a vehicle sits unused. Examine the tyre sidewalls for cracking, a common issue on low-mileage cars where the rubber ages out before the tread wears down.
