2010 Mercedes-Benz C 1.8L Petrol · KP60 AAZ

The most recent MOT on 1 July 2024 recorded a pass at 123,987 miles, indicating that the vehicle was deemed roadworthy at the time of testing. The pattern of a failure on 29 June 2024 followed immediately by a pass suggests an administrative re‑test rather than a recurring mechanical fault, and the absence of recorded defects across all entries points to a stable maintenance trend. Mileage has risen from 114,175 miles on 2 July 2022 to 123,987 miles on 1 July 2024, an increase of roughly 9,800 miles over two years – about 4,900 miles per annum. For a 2010 model this is modest and implies relatively light usage. No gaps or sudden spikes appear in the log, and the consistent recording of mileage at each test supports a regular service schedule. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to components that can deteriorate without triggering MOT alerts. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear or leakage, and verify that the brake discs and calipers operate without binding or uneven wear. Examine tyre tread depth and condition, as consumables are not captured in the MOT record. A visual check for corrosion on the chassis, wheel arches, and exhaust system will reveal any structural rust that may have been missed. Request the detailed failure notice from the 29 June 2024 test to confirm that no underlying issue was omitted.
