2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · KY65 KYV

Based on the official DVSA MOT records, this 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class presents a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 November 2025 at 52,173 miles passed with zero defects recorded, marking three consecutive clean certificates. This is a strong indicator that the vehicle has been maintained to a consistently high standard in recent years, with no outstanding mechanical or structural concerns flagged by the tester. The mileage pattern tells a clear story of very light use. Over the eleven-year span from 2015 to 2025, the vehicle has covered just 52,173 miles, averaging roughly 4,743 miles per year. The annual MOT readings confirm this steady, low-mileage accumulation: 30,833 miles in November 2021, 36,647 in November 2022, 41,216 in November 2023, 46,889 in November 2024, and 52,173 in November 2025. Each year shows an increase of approximately 5,000 to 5,700 miles, with no sudden spikes or suspicious gaps in the record. The odometer progression is entirely consistent and raises no concerns about mileage tampering or long periods of disuse that could cause deterioration of seals, hoses, or tyres from age alone. The only defect in the entire recorded history appeared in the November 2022 test at 36,647 miles, when the tester flagged a nearside front tyre worn close to legal limit and worn on edge. This is a minor consumable wear item, not a structural or mechanical fault, and it was evidently rectified before the 2023 test, which passed clean. The absence of any recurring advisories across the subsequent three tests suggests the owner addressed the issue promptly and has maintained proper tyre condition since. No suspension, braking, exhaust, or structural corrosion defects have ever appeared on record. A buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection despite the clean paperwork. Low-mileage vehicles that spend extended periods stationary can develop flat-spotted tyres, degraded rubber bushes, or surface corrosion on brake discs and exhaust components that a single annual MOT may not fully capture. Check the date codes on all four tyres to confirm they are recent and not aged beyond six years, inspect the underside for any signs of corrosion on subframes or suspension mounting points, and test the brakes for any pulling or uneven wear that could indicate a binding caliper. The MOT record is reassuring, but a physical inspection and a short test drive remain essential before committing to purchase.
