2007 Mercedes-Benz C 1.8L Petrol · SP07 ADE

This vehicle presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass rate. The most recent test on 29 January 2026 at 155,038 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes dating back to February 2023, indicating a vehicle that is currently maintained to a high standard of compliance. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a nineteen year old car. Between February 2023 at 142,177 miles and January 2026 at 155,038 miles, the vehicle covered 12,861 miles over approximately three years. This average usage suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber seals. The MOT record is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age and mileage. There are no recurring mentions of suspension bushes, coil springs, or exhaust emissions issues. Even the failure on 30 January 2024 was resolved on the same day at 146,504 miles, though the record does not specify the nature of that defect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT test often overlooks or flags only when severe. Given the age of this Mercedes-Benz, check for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches. Inspect the condition of the brake discs for lip wear and check the service history for evidence of automatic transmission fluid changes, as the MOT does not monitor drivetrain health.
