2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · ST65 ABV

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-09-01 at 117,888 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024-09-05 (102,311 miles) and 2022-07-07 (72,707 miles) also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. The 2022-07-05 failure entry is anomalous, as it lists “no defects recorded,” which may reflect a data inconsistency. Overall, the absence of recurring faults in the last three tests implies the car has been maintained to acceptable standards. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 11-year-old vehicle, averaging ~10,717 miles annually. A notable jump from 61,538 miles (2021-07-01) to 72,707 miles (2022-07-07) suggests accelerated use over 12 months, but no corresponding defects were noted. Subsequent tests show steady accumulation, with 102,311 miles by 2024-09-05 and 117,888 miles in 2025. The MOT history lacks detailed advisories or repeated failures, indicating no systemic mechanical or structural issues requiring urgent attention. A prospective buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushings, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be checked for uneven wear, as high mileage can accelerate deterioration. While no corrosion or structural faults were flagged, a visual assessment of the underbody and chassis is recommended to confirm the absence of hidden damage. The MOT record’s brevity on specific defects means in-person verification of these areas is essential to validate the vehicle’s roadworthiness.
