Our Verdict
This is a relatively low-risk purchase f
When inspecting this 1.3L petrol A-Class, focus on the service history to ensure the manufacturer's scheduled maintenance has been followed, as MOT records do not confirm service intervals. Given the 2025 MOT advisories, you should check the remaining life on the front brake pads and discs to see if replacement is imminent.
Negotiate based on the upcoming need for brake maintenance if they haven't been addressed since the last test. Additionally, check the condition of the tyres and windscreen washer fluid levels, as these are common failure points for this model aggregate.
Running costs for this 1332cc petrol model are generally moderate for a premium hatchback. Fuel economy will depend on driving style, but the small engine size suggests reasonable efficiency for urban and motorway use.
Insurance groups for the A-Class vary, so obtain a specific quote for UM72MAH. Maintenance costs will be influenced by Mercedes-Benz parts pricing, though the recent MOT advisories indicate that brake component replacement is a likely near-term expense.
Specifically inspect the front braking system. The November 2025 MOT recorded that the front brake discs were worn and the pads were wearing thin; verify if these have been replaced since that test.
Beyond the brakes, check the tyres and headlamps, as these are the most frequent failure reasons for this model according to aggregate data. Ensure the windscreen washer system is fully functional to avoid common MOT failures seen in this model group.
Registered in November 2022, this black Mercedes-Benz A-Class has covered 22,741 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. The mileage is slightly above the model average of 8,263 miles per year, but remains low for a vehicle of this age. The single recorded MOT history shows a pass with advisories related to front brake components, which is typical for a vehicle of this usage.
The Mercedes-Benz A-Class shows an 89.4% average MOT pass rate across nearly 100,000 analysed vehicles, with common issues relating to tyres, washers, and lighting.
