2014 Mercedes-Benz B180 1.6L Petrol · LW64 EBZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, passing its most recent inspection in March 2026 with 63,659 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a failure in early 2025. While the car failed its March test that year due to an inoperative engine malfunction indicator light and a damaged seat belt, the subsequent pass a year later indicates these specific faults were addressed. This suggests the owner is willing to rectify safety and electronic defects once flagged by the DVSA. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old Mercedes Benz, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per annum. Between March 2024 at 61,107 miles and March 2025 at 63,529 miles, the vehicle covered only 2,422 miles in a year, followed by just 130 miles recorded prior to the March 2026 test. This low usage often reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it increases the risk of rubber components degrading or brakes seizing due to long periods of inactivity. A buyer must physically inspect the offside front seat belt webbing, as it was flagged as damaged in 2025 and requires verification that it has been replaced. The presence of covers and child seats during the last two tests hindered the tester's view, so a thorough inspection of the chassis and underbody for corrosion is necessary. Given the low annual mileage, a specific check for brake caliper binding and perished suspension bushes is essential, as these components are common issues on vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods.
