2018 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · LR68 UOV

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness trend, remaining stable with a clean record across five consecutive tests. The most recent inspection on 5 January 2026 at 53,299 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This pattern of clean passes suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between the May 2022 test at 30,404 miles and the January 2026 test at 53,299 miles, the car covered 22,895 miles over approximately three years and eight months. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps that would indicate periods of prolonged standing or sudden heavy commercial use. The absence of any advisories regarding brake discs, suspension bushes, or corrosion over the last four years is rare for a vehicle of this vintage. The record shows no recurring mechanical failures or warnings concerning exhaust emissions or structural integrity. This implies the previous owner adhered to a strict service regime rather than reacting only to MOT failures. A physical inspection should still focus on standard wear items that the MOT may not flag as defects until they reach a critical limit. Check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads, as these are consumables that may be nearing the end of their life despite the clean test history. Verify the service book to ensure oil changes and filter replacements align with the manufacturer's intervals.
