2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · OG51 DAN

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 20 December 2025 at 43,457 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This flawless record suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the mechanical failures or structural degradation typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. There is a significant discrepancy between the December 2021 test at 25,101 miles and the May 2023 test at 51,500 miles, where the car covered over 26,000 miles in a short window. Since that peak, usage has dropped off considerably, with only 8,043 miles recorded prior to the December 2025 test. This pattern of high use followed by very low mileage can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components if the vehicle sits for extended periods. Because the MOT history shows no recurring mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on components associated with low-mileage storage. A buyer should check for cracking in tyre sidewalls and perished wiper blades, which occur regardless of tread depth. It is also prudent to inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use often prevents the rotors from cleaning themselves naturally. Checking the suspension bushes for signs of dry cracking will ensure the low mileage chassis remains structurally sound.
