2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 2.1L Diesel · WN66 AAU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-06-25 at 94,005 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024 to 2022 also passed without issues, though a duplicate entry for 2022-04-12 shows one test failed despite no defects noted. This inconsistency may reflect administrative error, but the absence of recurring mechanical failures suggests the car has been well-maintained. The lack of advisories or critical failures in recent years implies no urgent structural or safety risks. The mileage of 94,005 miles over 10 years equates to approximately 9,400 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for this age. MOT records show consistent testing intervals, with no significant gaps exceeding 12 months. The 2022-04-12 test, which coincided with a failed result, occurred at 71,368 miles—roughly 10,000 miles below the current mileage. This suggests the vehicle has accumulated steady usage without abrupt spikes, reducing concerns about accelerated wear on components like suspension or brakes. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as these components often degrade over time in older vehicles. The absence of corrosion reports in the MOT history is positive, but a physical inspection is recommended to confirm structural integrity. Additionally, the exhaust system and emission controls should be checked, as older engines may develop leaks or inefficiencies. While the MOT records show no critical issues, the car’s age warrants scrutiny of fluid levels, steering alignment, and tyre tread to ensure no minor faults have been overlooked.
