2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · LS15 TXT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on February 26 2026 at 102,480 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car consistently passes after rectifying minor, non-mechanical defects. The most recent failure involved a nearside rear tyre with tread depth below the legal limit, a fault that suggests the previous owner addressed consumable items only when prompted by a test failure rather than on a preventative schedule. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per year. Between the May 2024 test at 84,541 miles and the July 2025 test at 96,890 miles, the car covered over 12,000 miles in just fourteen months. The subsequent 5,590 miles recorded between July 2025 and February 2026 indicate regular, moderate use, which is generally beneficial for seals and mechanical components to prevent corrosion associated with long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the tyres and suspension, as the record shows a failure to monitor tyre wear. While the MOT history shows no major mechanical or structural failures, the high mileage of over 100,000 miles warrants a check of control arm bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue. Given the washer system failure in 2025, verify the pump and pipework for leaks or blocked nozzles to ensure the system remains fully operational.
