2009 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Petrol · KY09 AFX

This vehicle is in an exceptionally stable condition regarding its MOT history. The most recent test on 19 January 2026 at 34,954 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to January 2023, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 2,056 miles per year. Between 26 January 2023 and 19 January 2026, the odometer rose from 30,301 to 34,954 miles. This represents a steady, low-volume usage pattern of approximately 1,500 miles per annum over the last three years. Such low usage often preserves the interior and engine components but can introduce specific risks associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Rubber elements such as suspension bushes, engine mounts, and tyre sidewalls can perish or crack over seventeen years. Check for flat spots on the tyres and ensure the brake discs have not suffered from surface corrosion or pitting due to infrequent use. The record shows a failure on 22 January 2025, which was resolved a day later at 33,540 miles. While the specific defect was not detailed in the summary, the immediate rectification suggests a proactive owner. Given the lack of structural corrosion or suspension failures in the history, the primary concern remains the effects of low-mileage stagnation rather than mechanical wear.
