2010 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.7L Diesel · SK60 LXT

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. It passed its most recent MOT on 6 September 2025 at 53,084 miles with no defects recorded. This clean result follows a pattern of successful tests over the last three years, suggesting the car is mechanically sound according to the statutory requirements. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2010 model, averaging roughly 3,318 miles per year. The record shows a steady increase from 42,297 miles in September 2023 to 53,084 miles by September 2025. This indicates consistent, light use rather than long periods of stagnation, which reduces the risk of seized calipers or perished seals often found in low-mileage vehicles. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no recorded advisories or specific defects across multiple years. While the failures on 1 September 2023 and 4 September 2025 were resolved immediately, the lack of detailed defect data in the record is atypical for a sixteen year old car. This absence of flagged wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust components suggests either a very well-maintained vehicle or a lenient testing history. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Check for rubber perishing in the suspension and engine mounts, and inspect the underside for surface corrosion. Given the lack of recorded brake wear in the MOT history, verifying the actual thickness of the pads and the condition of the brake fluid is advisable to ensure the low mileage has not led to neglect of essential consumables.
