2016 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Diesel · WN66 AEY

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent 2026-02-19 MOT at 61,465 miles resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. Previous tests from 2025-01-15 and 2024-01-23 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. While a 2025-01-15 entry notes a failed test, no defects were recorded, suggesting either a data inconsistency or a minor procedural error. Overall, the absence of recurring mechanical failures or advisories implies the car has been well-maintained in recent years. The mileage of 61,465 miles over 10 years equates to an average of 6,146 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for this age. MOT tests are spaced approximately 12 months apart, with the exception of the 2023-01-19 to 2024-01-23 interval, which spans 13 months. This gap does not raise immediate concerns, as the 2024 test passed without defects. The record shows no significant spikes in mileage or extended periods of inactivity, which might otherwise indicate neglect. The history remains largely clean, with no evidence of repeated failures in critical systems. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension components, particularly the rear suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common wear points in older vehicles. Brake discs and calipers should also be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, despite no prior advisories. The exhaust system’s structural integrity and emissions compliance should be verified, as these can degrade over time. While the MOT data shows no immediate red flags, physical checks are essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition, especially given the 2025-01-15 test anomaly and the age of the model.
