2015 Mercedes-Benz A220 AMG Night Edition CDI A 2.1L Diesel · RIL 9933

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz A220 AMG Night Edition CDI presents a stable and well-maintained roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT, conducted on 4 March 2026 at 89,894 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This clean result is not an isolated event but the culmination of a consistent pattern. The vehicle has passed every single test since at least February 2023, with the sole exception being a pass-with-no-advisories recorded on 21 February 2023 at 71,211 miles, which appears to be a data entry anomaly or a voluntary retest immediately prior to a clean pass the following day. The maintenance trend is demonstrably stable and positive, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in sound mechanical order with no recurring faults or emerging defects flagged by testers over the last three years. The mileage accumulation is steady and entirely typical for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The recorded annual mileage of approximately 8,172 miles per year suggests regular, consistent use without prolonged periods of standing or exceptionally high mileage spikes that would accelerate wear. The intervals between tests show a logical progression: 4,365 miles between the February 2025 and March 2026 tests, 5,356 miles between March 2024 and February 2025, and 8,921 miles between the February 2023 and March 2024 tests. The slightly higher accumulation in the 2023–2024 period is not concerning and simply reflects normal usage variation. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden drops that would suggest odometer tampering or extended periods of neglect. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas that MOT tests do not fully stress-test. The 2015 A-Class platform is known to develop suspension wear over time, so check the front lower arm bushes, drop links, and rear torsion beam mounts for play or deterioration, particularly given the car has now approached 90,000 miles. Inspect the exhaust system for corrosion, especially around the diesel particulate filter housing and flexi-joint, as these components on the CDI engine are prone to rust in the underbody environment. Examine the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or lipping, and check the caliper sliding mechanisms for free movement, as binding can develop between MOT intervals without triggering a failure. Finally, inspect the inner wings, sills, and subframe mounting points for any signs of surface corrosion or structural weakness, as these areas on the W176 platform can deteriorate if the car has been used in salted winter roads without adequate underbody protection.
