2016 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · SO07 HAH

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on January 2024 at 55,785 miles passed, though it introduced advisories regarding the nearside and offside rear tyres being worn close to the legal limit. This indicates that while the mechanical and structural components remain sound, basic consumables are now reaching the end of their service life and require attention. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,578 miles annually. There is a significant gap in usage between November 2020 at 27,732 miles and November 2021 at 45,175 miles, where the car covered over 17,000 miles in a single year. Since that period, the usage has returned to a more consistent, lower cadence. This low annual mileage suggests reduced wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the rear tyres, as the edge wear noted in the 2024 test may indicate an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Given the long periods of low use, the buyer should also check for brake disc corrosion or seized calipers, which often occur when vehicles are not driven frequently. The structural integrity appears uncompromised by the record, but a check of the chassis for surface rust remains standard for a Mercedes of this age.
