2019 Mercedes-Benz C 1.9L Diesel · KV19 SJA

The vehicle presents a generally roadworthy profile with a stable maintenance trend following a period of minor neglect. The most recent test in August 2025 at 52,878 miles resulted in a pass with only an advisory for a nail in the offside rear tyre. This follows a clean result in 2024, indicating that once previous mechanical or structural concerns were addressed, the vehicle has maintained its operational standards over the last two years. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per annum. Data shows a steady increase in usage, with 9,000 miles covered between July 2022 and July 2023, and another 7,600 miles between July 2023 and August 2024. This regularity suggests a predictable wear cycle which typically reduces the hidden stress on drivetrain components and suspension compared to vehicles subjected to long periods of standing. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres and wheel assemblies, as the July 2023 test at 41,499 miles flagged both nearside and offside rear tyres for reaching the legal limit with uneven wear. This pattern often indicates alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that require a physical inspection. Additionally, the July 2022 failure involving a sidewall bulge and a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system suggests a history of overlooked safety-critical items, necessitating a thorough check that the current set of tyres is free of structural damage or irregular deformation.
