2018 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.3L Petrol · LP68 AAV

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT test on 2025-07-01 at 116,027 miles with two advisories: a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system, an insufficient windscreen washer liquid, and an inoperative registration plate lamp. This outcome suggests an overall trend of worsening maintenance, as the vehicle has accumulated more advisories over time. The 2025 test also marked a return to failing status after a clean pass in 2024, indicating potential underlying issues. Mileage accumulation has been high, particularly over the past three years, with an average annual increase of approximately 14,503 miles. This is notable, given the vehicle's age of around eight years. The data shows a significant jump from 72,683 miles in 2023 to 116,027 miles in 2025, with no notable gaps in the record. The rapid mileage accumulation may indicate more frequent use or a lack of maintenance, which could impact the vehicle's structural integrity and mechanical components. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's tyres closely, given the history of tyre damage and cracking. The rear tyres in particular may require early replacement. Additionally, the malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system should be investigated further to ensure it is functioning correctly. The vehicle's suspension and steering components should also be examined for signs of wear, as the high mileage may have taken its toll on these areas. Furthermore, the registration plate lamp and windscreen washer system should be checked to ensure they are in good working order. A thorough inspection of the vehicle's underside and wheel arches is also recommended to assess for any signs of corrosion or structural damage.
