2013 Mercedes-Benz C 1.6L Petrol · SC62 ACF

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent DVSA test on 5 December 2025 at 68,819 miles, roughly seven months before the current date, returned a pass with no defects recorded. Across the five consecutive annual examinations from December 2021 to December 2025, the Mercedes-Benz C demonstrated a stable maintenance trend, with every test resulting in a pass and zero advisories noted. This consistent clean sheet indicates the previous keeper maintained the car to a standard that satisfied statutory inspection requirements. Recorded mileages show restrained use for a 2013 model. The odometer read 52,000 miles at the 10 December 2021 test, then 55,715 on 5 December 2022, 60,396 on 5 December 2023, 64,325 on 2 December 2024, and 68,819 on 5 December 2025. That equates to roughly 4,000 to 4,500 miles added each year, well below the national average and confirming the low annual mean of about 5,294 miles. The file contains no gaps; tests occurred yearly with no lapses, and the absence of any minor or major defect entries points to a carefully kept service pattern rather than deferred consumable replacement. No recurring mechanical or structural faults appear in the MOT data, so the buyer faces no flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, binding calipers, brake disc wear, exhaust emission failures, or corrosion concerns from the record. The tester never raised advisories on tyres, wiper blades, or underbody integrity. Such a spotless history suggests the prior owner addressed issues before they reached test threshold, though it does not guarantee hidden age-related degradation. A physical inspection should still scrutinise typical 13-year-old components that low mileage and standing can conceal. Examine suspension arms for perished bushes, check brake discs and calipers for rust binding after limited use, and assess structural members for any incipient corrosion. Verify the mileage cluster against service stamps to confirm the recorded 68,819 miles is genuine. The clean MOT trail provides strong assurance, but hands-on checks remain prudent for any used purchase.
