2007 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Petrol · KS56 UPP

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on January 20 2026 at 90,964 miles. The maintenance trend appears remarkably stable, as every recorded failure was followed by a pass within a matter of days. This pattern suggests that the previous owner was proactive in addressing minor defects, likely involving bulb replacements, wiper blades, or minor adjustments, immediately following a test failure rather than allowing faults to persist or escalate into mechanical failures. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 90,964 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,788 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 3,100 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 3,116 miles covered between January 2025 and 2026. While low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and the oxidation of fluid-carrying surfaces. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, as older Mercedes A-Class models are prone to corrosion in the rear sills and wheel arches. Given the low mileage, the suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for cracking or perish, which occurs through age rather than distance travelled. Additionally, inspect the brake discs for pitting or surface rust, as vehicles that sit for long periods often suffer from brake corrosion and seized calipers despite having low mileage figures.
