2018 Mercedes-Benz GLC 2.1L Diesel · RA53 OSS

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 28 October 2025 at 54,742 miles recorded no defects or advisories. This indicates a remarkably stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively maintained the vehicle to avoid the mechanical or structural failures that typically appear on MOT records as vehicles age. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-mileage profile, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per annum. Between the November 2021 test at 23,838 miles and the December 2024 test at 49,994 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 26,000 miles, showing steady and predictable usage. This low mileage suggests that wear on heavy components such as the drivetrain assembly and suspension geometry remains minimal compared to average-run vehicles. The lack of any significant gaps in testing intervals confirms the car has not sat for long periods, which prevents seal degradation and fluid oxidation. Because the MOT record shows no advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake corrosion, or structural integrity, a physical inspection should focus on verifying the condition of consumable items. While the low mileage protects mechanical components, check for flat-spotting tyres or perished rubber components that can occur despite low use. The buyer should also inspect for any fluid leaks around the undercarriage, as a clean MOT record is not a substitute for a comprehensive mechanical survey. The data suggests a well-cared-for example that has avoided the common faults seen in this era of luxury SUV.
