2021 Mercedes-Benz A 1.3L Petrol · SF06 AZF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 22 December 2025 at 34 496 miles recorded a pass, the only advisory being that the nearside rear child seat fitting prevented full inspection of the adult belt. No new defects appeared after the January 2025 test at 26 295 miles, and the earlier June 2024 test at 21 708 miles only noted tyre wear advisories. The pattern shows no worsening condition; the car remains within acceptable technical parameters. Mileage accumulation relative to the 2021 model’s age is modest. Between June 2024 and January 2025 the odometer rose 4 587 miles in roughly seven months, then increased another 8 201 miles to December 2025 over about eleven months. This reflects an average annual mileage of roughly 6 900–9 000 miles, which is typical for a five‑year‑old vehicle and indicates light to moderate use. The MOT records are recent, each spaced within a year of the current date, providing a clean and up‑to‑date inspection history. A prospective buyer should inspect the front tyre condition closely. The 2024 advisories on nearside and offside front tyres being worn close to the legal limit (5.2.3 (e)) suggest checking tread depth, edge wear, and the condition of the surrounding suspension bushes and coil springs for any uneven loading. The child‑seat anchorages and belt routing merit scrutiny to ensure the adult belt can be fully examined when the seat is removed. Brake discs and pads should be examined for wear patterns, and the caliper brackets checked for binding or corrosion. Finally, a visual survey of the front suspension mounts and exhaust brackets for rust will confirm structural integrity. Overall, the MOT history demonstrates a vehicle that has been maintained without major mechanical issues. The only recurring items are tyre wear and a minor inspection limitation related to the child‑seat fitting. A thorough in‑person check of the tyres, belt access, and brake components will give the buyer confidence in the car’s mechanical condition.
