Our Verdict
A practical and reasonably priced option
Focus your attention on the repairs carried out in March 2026. You should request invoices to confirm that the fractured offside rear coil spring and damaged tyres were replaced with quality components. Since the offside rear brake disc remains an advisory for being worn or pitted, this provides a legitimate point for price negotiation.
The 1461cc diesel engine is geared toward fuel efficiency, making it a cost-effective choice for higher annual mileages. Tax and insurance will be typical for a 2015 B-Class, though maintenance costs may increase as the vehicle ages, particularly regarding suspension and braking components.
Inspect the suspension and braking system thoroughly. The March 2026 failure for a fractured offside rear coil spring aligns with aggregate data identifying coil springs as a top failure reason for this model. Check the offside rear brake disc specifically, as it was noted as worn, pitted, or scored during the last test.
This grey 2015 Mercedes-Benz B-Class has recorded 78,613 miles. The MOT history was clear of defects from 2023 through early 2025, although the March 2026 test required repairs to the tyres, a rear coil spring, and headlamp aim. The vehicle's annual mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 6,171 miles.
The B-Class has an average MOT pass rate of 80.2%, with common failure points typically including tyres, coil springs, and drive shaft joints.
