2014 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.6L Petrol · SN64 EJK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive repairs rather than preventative care. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 59,652 miles passed, it followed a failure just mile prior due to a structural bulge in the offside front tyre. The persistence of brake pipe corrosion and pitted disc surfaces across multiple years suggests that the previous owner only addressed mechanical issues when they reached a failure point rather than performing routine component replacement. At 12 years old, the recorded mileage of 59,652 miles represents very low annual usage, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 7,300 miles driven between October 2023 and October 2024, and another 6,400 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. This low mileage often leads to age-related rubber degradation and metal oxidation, which is evidenced by the fractured coil spring noted in October 2024. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system and suspension geometry. The rear brake pipes have been flagged for corrosion since at least October 2023, indicating a long-term issue that may lead to fluid leaks if not fully replaced. Recurring advisories regarding uneven wear on the nearside front tyre across several years suggest a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that remain unaddressed. Verify the condition of all coil springs for signs of cracks and ensure the previous spring fracture was properly rectified and not merely masked.
