2018 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · KT18 OSW

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz C presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 December 2025 at 43,210 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the vehicle's history. No advisories or failures appear in any entry, indicating the car has not required corrective work within the test scope over the past four years. Mileage sits low for an eight-year-old vehicle. The record shows 16,685 miles at the 8 July 2022 test, rising to 22,382 by 4 July 2023, 28,230 by 19 June 2024, 30,699 by 19 December 2024, and 43,210 by December 2025. Annual averages run near 5,400 miles, though the final year added roughly 12,500 miles after a quieter period. The DVSA data is sparse on detail, with every test listing no defects, so no wear patterns or consumable replacements are documented. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low prior mileage and likely periods of standing. Tyres and wiper blades may have aged rather than worn through use. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories in the record is favourable, but long idle spells can conceal seizing calipers or degraded rubber components not caught in a static test. Given the clean history, previous owners appear to have kept the car to a basic statutory standard with no deferred items flagged. The recent mileage increase suggests heavier use than before; verify service intervals were maintained through 2025 to confirm drivetrain condition matches the odometer.
