2022 Mercedes-Benz EQC 400 AMG Line Premium + 4M Electric · PO72 WUP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT on 15 August 2025 at 20,104 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a reactive approach rather than proactive care. The car failed the test just one day prior due to multiple critical tyre defects. While the immediate issues were rectified to achieve a pass, the failure indicates that the previous owner ignored significant safety-related wear until a formal inspection forced a resolution. At 20,104 miles over four years, the vehicle reflects a very low mileage profile, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. This low usage typically suggests less strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, but it often leads to flat spotting or degradation of rubber elements. The failure in August 2025 highlights that despite the low distance travelled, the tyres reached the end of their life prematurely with exposed cords on inner edges, suggesting potentially poor alignment or uneven wear. A buyer must physically inspect the vehicle's alignment to account for the edge wear noted on the nearside front tyre. Consistent wear on inner tyres often points to incorrect camber settings or worn suspension bushes, which can quickly consume expensive new sets of tyres. Given the exposed cords on the nearside and offside rear inner tyres, a check of the wheel bearings and control arms is necessary to ensure no underlying geometry faults are causing such rapid degradation.
