Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When inspecting this specific vehicle, your primary focus should be the fuel system. The July 2026 MOT failure specifically cited a fuel hose leaking excessively or posing a fire risk; you must ensure this has been professionally repaired and that no other hoses show signs of degradation.
Furthermore, check the recent work done to address the 2026 MOT advisories. The vehicle was flagged for worn tyres on both the nearside and offside fronts, as well as thin brake pads on the nearside and offside rears. Ask for receipts to confirm these components were replaced, as the MOT pass was only achieved after these issues were addressed.
As a 2.0L diesel, running costs will be influenced by fuel economy and potential ULEZ/Clean Air Zone charges depending on the specific Euro emission standard of this 2009 model. Insurance groups for the B-Class vary, so obtaining a quote is essential.
Maintenance costs for this Mercedes-Benz are likely to be higher than a standard hatchback. Given the recent MOT failures regarding tyres and brakes, you should budget for regular replacement of consumables. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, are approximately £1,400-£1,700.
Prioritise a physical inspection of the fuel lines and connections to ensure the leak identified in the July 2026 MOT has been fully rectified. Check the engine bay for any signs of diesel residue which could indicate a lingering leak.
Inspect the condition of all four tyres; the 2026 MOT history explicitly noted wear on the edges of the front tyres, which can sometimes indicate alignment issues. Additionally, check the brake pads and discs. The 2023 MOT recorded pitted or scored brake discs, so ensure the current braking performance is smooth and free of vibration.
This 2009 blue Mercedes-Benz B-Class diesel has covered 109,035 miles since its first registration in November 2009. The MOT history shows a mix of clean records in 2024 and 2025, but the most recent test in July 2026 involved a failure due to an excessively leaking fuel hose. Additionally, the vehicle has recurring advisories regarding tyre wear and brake pad thickness.
Based on an aggregate of 69,421 vehicles, common MOT failure reasons for this model include tyres, shock absorbers, and drive shaft joints.
