2017 Mercedes-Benz C 2.0L Petrol · WF17 UOT

The vehicle currently maintains a clean bill of health, with the most recent test conducted on 28 February 2026 at 73,556 miles resulting in a pass with zero defects. This indicates a positive maintenance trend, as the previous three annual inspections were also completed without any recorded advisories or failures. The car has successfully transitioned from a period of minor consumable neglect to a state of consistent, proactive upkeep, suggesting that the current owner has addressed mechanical requirements before they escalated into test failures. The recorded mileage of 73,556 miles over a nine-year lifespan averages approximately 8,173 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for this class of vehicle. The accumulation of mileage remains remarkably steady, showing no evidence of long-term storage or periods of excessive, high-intensity use. The gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests shows a consistent increase of roughly 10,000 miles per year, confirming that the vehicle has been driven regularly rather than left to sit, which generally benefits the longevity of seals, gaskets, and battery health. While the 2023 inspection flagged thin brake pads and uneven tyre wear, these issues were clearly resolved, as no further advisories appeared in the subsequent three years of testing. A prospective buyer should still physically verify the current condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are high-wear items on a Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Inspect the inner and outer edges of the tyres for any signs of tracking misalignment, which could indicate underlying wear in the suspension bushes or ball joints despite the clean MOT record. Given the vehicle's age, a visual check of the underside for any early signs of surface corrosion on the subframes or brake lines remains a prudent final step in the evaluation process.
