2018 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · LP18 GEK

The May 2026 MOT at 54,984 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming the car’s present roadworthiness. Maintenance appears stable, as the only recurring issue across the history is tyre wear, with no evidence of escalating mechanical failures. The vehicle, first registered in 2018, has covered about 6,873 miles per year, a figure that aligns with typical usage for an eight‑year‑old model. Mileage jumps from 28,756 miles in August 2021 to 33,786 miles in May 2022, an increase of 5,030 miles in nine months, indicating a period of higher activity or reduced standing time. Subsequent intervals show more regular increments, with the 2025‑2026 period adding 4,695 miles over ten months, consistent with the overall trend. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the brake discs and calipers are free of binding or uneven wear, and examine the exhaust system and chassis for structural rust, all of which are common failure points on high‑mileage Mercedes‑Benz models. The repeated tyre‑edge wear noted in every test suggests possible mis‑alignment or suspension imbalance, so a close check of tyre tread depth, wheel alignment and the condition of the steering linkage is advisable before purchase.
