2015 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · WN15 ADV

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent 2025 MOT at 60,338 miles recording a pass and no defects. Over the past three years, the MOT history shows consistent passing, with no critical or major defects flagged. The 2023-05-15 failed test recorded no defects, suggesting a possible administrative error or minor technical issue resolved before the subsequent 2023-05-16 pass. No recurring issues or worsening trends are evident in the recorded data, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to a standard meeting legal requirements. The mileage of 60,338 miles over 11 years equates to approximately 5,485 miles annually, significantly below the average for its age. This low usage may indicate infrequent operation or extended periods of inactivity, which can lead to accelerated wear on components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers due to lack of regular movement. The MOT records show no gaps in testing, with annual checks between 2022 and 2025, but the sparse data from 2023-05-15 to 2023-05-16 raises questions about the accuracy of the failed result. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for hardened bushes or coil spring fatigue, as low mileage can mask wear. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or binding, particularly if the vehicle has been stationary for prolonged periods. The exhaust system and underbody corrosion are also critical, given the age of the car. While the MOT history shows no major faults, the low mileage and isolated failed test warrant a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity.
