2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 2.1L Diesel · N3 FLV

The 2026-01-20 MOT at 54,600 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming the vehicle is currently roadworthy and the maintenance history reflects a stable, well‑kept condition. The mileage trajectory shows a gradual increase from 22,109 miles in December 2021 to 54,600 miles in January 2026, averaging roughly 5,500 miles per year, which is low for a ten‑year‑old model and suggests limited use or periods of inactivity. The intervals between tests are roughly one year, with the largest jump of 11,614 miles occurring between the April 2025 and January 2026 tests, indicating a period of more regular driving. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension components — particularly the bushes and coil springs — for signs of wear or cracking, verify that the brake discs and calipers are not binding, and examine the structural integrity of the sills, wheel arches and underbody for any corrosion that could compromise safety. The exhaust system should also be checked visually for rust or damage, even though the MOTs show no emissions failures. Finally, while the record is clean, the buyer should confirm tyre tread depth, wiper condition and fluid levels during the viewing, as these consumables may have been neglected despite the absence of recorded defects.
