2013 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · LR63 KAJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy. The most recent MOT on 7 March 2026 recorded 108 602 miles and passed with no defects, confirming that the car meets current standards. The only blemish in the history is a failure on 21 February 2024 at 96 736 miles, followed a day later by a pass at 96 790 miles with no defects noted, indicating a brief, resolved issue. Overall the maintenance trend is stable, with recent tests showing consistent compliance. Mileage accumulation has been steady but shows a slight deceleration in the final year. From 89 145 miles in February 2023 the car gained roughly 7 600 miles to reach 96 790 miles by February 2024, then added about 6 500 miles to 103 269 miles in March 2025, and finally increased just over 5 300 miles to 108 602 miles by March 2026. The tight interval between the 2024 failure and subsequent pass suggests the problem was minor and quickly rectified. The record is complete with an annual test, providing a clear mileage trajectory. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to verify the condition of components that are prone to wear at this mileage. Check brake discs and pads for uneven wear or thinness, and test for any binding in the calipers. Examine suspension bushes, shock absorbers and coil springs for deterioration or excessive play. Look over the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks, and inspect the underbody and wheel arches for rust, especially given the car’s age. Tyre tread depth and sidewall condition should be assessed, as should the steering linkage for looseness. A thorough visual and operational check will confirm that consumables are within acceptable limits. The MOT history shows no recurring defects, implying basic upkeep has been performed. Nevertheless, the car’s age and mileage mean that wear items will soon require replacement. A pre‑purchase inspection should verify that brake, suspension, exhaust and structural components are free from significant corrosion or fatigue, and that all consumables meet current safety standards. This ensures the buyer has a complete picture of the vehicle’s mechanical condition before purchase.
