2020 Mercedes-Benz EQC 400 AMG Line Premium 4M Electricity · OV70 EWG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the recent MOT history indicates a shift from perfect maintenance to reactive repairs. While it passed its latest test on January 2026 at 55,274 miles, this followed a significant failure just four days prior. The transition from a clean record in 2025 to a flagged lower suspension arm ball joint and multiple wheel-related failures suggests that while the immediate faults were addressed, the vehicle is beginning to show signs of wear requiring attention. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,200 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 3,134 miles between April 2024 and February 2025, followed by a rapid accumulation of 12,346 miles in the final year leading up to the January 2026 test. This surge in usage likely correlates with the mechanical stress observed on components, specifically the fractured road wheels and the structural tyre failure, which often result from high-impact events or curb-related damage rather than simple wear and tear. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the wheel assemblies to ensure the fractures noted on the nearside and offside rear wheels were properly rectified with replacements rather than masked. The nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint was flagged for play in the January 2026 test; the buyer should verify this component was replaced and that the surrounding suspension geometry remains unaffected. Given the structural failure of the nearside rear tyre, checking the remaining tyres for hidden bulges or impact damage is essential to ensure the high-impact event did not compromise the electric drivetrain or suspension integrity.
