2010 Mercedes-Benz C 1.8L Petrol · KP60 AAY

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, indicating a stable and well-maintained mechanical condition. The most recent test on 25 June 2025 at 107,377 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back several years, suggesting the car has been kept in a roadworthy state without the typical degradation seen in vehicles of this vintage. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a 16-year-old car. Between 15 July 2022 and 25 June 2025, the odometer rose from 85,690 to 107,377 miles, averaging roughly 7,200 miles per year. This consistent usage prevents the common issues associated with long-term standing, such as perished seals or seized brake calipers. The record shows a minor anomaly on 12 July 2022, where the car failed and passed within three days at the same mileage, though the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a trivial rectification. Despite the absence of recorded faults, a buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension. Mercedes-Benz models from this era can develop corrosion on the subframes and sills, which does not always trigger an immediate MOT failure unless the structural integrity is compromised. Checking the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs is advisable given the 107,377-mile total, as these components naturally wear regardless of a clean test sheet. The lack of advisories regarding brake discs or tyre tread over the last four tests implies a proactive approach to consumable maintenance. A manual check of the service history is recommended to confirm that oil changes and transmission fluid flushes have matched this high standard of MOT compliance.
