2015 Mercedes-Benz SLK 1.8L Petrol · M2 SEY

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the record indicates a minor trend of recurring electrical oversights. The most recent test on 21 June 2025 at 78,261 miles passed despite a defect regarding the high-level brake light not functioning fully. This mirrors a failure from the July 2024 test at 68,734 miles where the stop lamps and high-level light were flagged. Beyond these minor lighting issues, the vehicle has demonstrated stable mechanical health over several years, with no structural or major mechanical failures recorded. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old roadster, averaging approximately 7,115 miles per year. Between the July 2023 test at 60,067 miles and the June 2025 test at 78,261 miles, the car covered 18,194 miles, showing a steady usage profile. The lack of significant mileage spikes between 2021 and 2023 suggests periods where the vehicle was stored or used sparingly, which can often lead to lower wear on rubber components and braking assemblies. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear electrical system to ensure the recurring brake light faults have been properly rectified rather than merely bypassed. Given the low annual mileage, it is also essential to check for seized brake calipers or perished suspension bushes, as these components often degrade when vehicles sit stationary for long periods. The MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion or suspension failure, but a manual check of the underbody and coil springs remains necessary practice for a Mercedes of this age and profile.
