2017 Mercedes-Benz SLC 2.0L Petrol · RK17 EXM

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz SLC presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 March 2026 at 31,999 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the entire history, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards. Annual mileage remains exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record shows 25,381 miles at the 14 March 2022 test, rising to 27,308 miles by 2 March 2023, 29,286 miles by 14 March 2024, 31,234 miles by 12 March 2025, and 31,999 miles by 10 March 2026. That equates to roughly 1,700 miles added per year, or about 3,555 miles annually since registration. Such limited use suggests the car spent long periods stationary between tests rather than covering regular daily distances. The absence of any flagged items means no recurring suspension bushes, brake disc wear, coil spring fractures, or structural corrosion entered the record. A clean pass sheet across five consecutive years implies the previous keeper maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoided even minor consumable advisories such as tyre tread or wiper blades. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Low-mileage cars left standing often develop perished rubber components, seized calipers, or underbody corrosion not visible during a static MOT. Verify the service history matches the odometer, check for fluid degradation, and confirm brake function after prolonged inactivity. The MOT data alone shows no defect trend, but it does not substitute for a physical examination of mechanical condition.
