2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · LS17 ADS

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status, with the most recent DVSA test on 22 September 2025 at 127,658 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded, roughly ten months prior to the current date. The maintenance trend across the available five-year history is stable, showing no advisories or mechanical faults at any interval from December 2021 through September 2025. The recorded mileage of 127,658 against a 2017 model year places this Mercedes-Benz C above typical usage, averaging roughly 14,184 miles per annum. Available tests begin on 10 December 2021 at 87,758 miles and continue almost annually through September 2025. The intervals show consistent yearly accumulations of around 9,000 to 11,800 miles after 2021, with the earlier unrecorded period likely accounting for higher initial use. No gaps exceed thirteen months, and each examination passed cleanly. Buyer should note the official record flags no recurring suspension, braking, or corrosion issues across these tests. That clean sheet suggests previous owners kept the car to minimum statutory standards, though high total mileage demands hands-on scrutiny. In person, inspect front and rear suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc thickness and caliper operation, and underbody structural integrity for corrosion that a visual MOT may not catalogue. Given the 10,000-mile annual pace and absence of advisory entries, consumable items such as tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions likely remain within limits but warrant verification. The buyer should prioritise drivetrain condition and turbocharger health during a pre-purchase inspection, as prolonged use at this mileage accelerates wear unseen in MOT data.
