2020 Mercedes-Benz A 1.9L Diesel · KU20 CDX

The vehicle presents a sound roadworthiness profile overall, with a maintenance trend that is currently stable. The most recent test on 22 May 2026 at 57,728 miles returned a completely clean pass with zero defects, advisories, or fails. This is a strong indicator that the car has been kept in good mechanical order over the past twelve months. The previous test in June 2025 did flag minor wear items, but these appear to have been addressed promptly before the latest inspection. Mileage accumulation sits at roughly 9,600 miles per year across the vehicle's six-year life, which is typical for a car of this age and class. The annual increments are consistent, showing no sudden jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity. The 10,170-mile gap between June 2025 and May 2026 is slightly above the yearly average but remains within a normal range for a regularly used vehicle. There are no alarming gaps in the MOT record itself, with tests completed annually and no missed years visible in the supplied data. The June 2025 test is the only entry that flagged any defects, and all three related to consumable wear rather than structural or serious mechanical failure. Both rear tyres showed deterioration, with the offside rear presenting cracking or perishing and the nearside rear worn close to the legal limit on its edge. The front brake discs were noted as worn, pitted, or scored, though not seriously weakened. These are precisely the kind of items a diligent owner would replace or monitor between tests, and the clean May 2026 result confirms they were actioned. A prospective buyer should still inspect the rear tyres in person for uneven wear patterns, which could point to alignment or suspension geometry issues not flagged at either test. The front brake discs and pads should be checked for current thickness and condition, as the pitting noted in 2025 can accelerate pad wear if not properly resolved. Beyond these items, the record offers no evidence of recurring structural corrosion, exhaust failures, or suspension defects, which is reassuring for a vehicle approaching six years of age.
