2022 Mercedes-Benz B 200 AMG Line ED Premium A 1.3L Petrol · YK22 CAA

The Mercedes-Benz B 200 AMG Line ED Premium A presents a clean and stable roadworthiness record over the past two MOT cycles, with both tests—most recently on 5 February 2026 at 43,475 miles and the preceding one on 28 February 2025 at 33,005 miles—concluding with no advisories or defects. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been well maintained under normal operating conditions, with no signs of recurring mechanical failures or deferred repairs. The absence of even minor advisories in both tests is particularly notable for a vehicle of this age and mileage, indicating that routine servicing—such as fluid checks, suspension inspections, and brake system evaluations—has likely been adhered to. That said, the short interval between tests (just under a year) means the next MOT is imminent, and buyers should verify whether the vehicle has been driven since February 2026, as the DVSA requires testing every 12 months regardless of mileage. The mileage accumulation of approximately 10,869 miles per year aligns closely with the average for a four-year-old vehicle, neither excessively high nor abnormally low. The gap between the two recorded tests—10,470 miles over roughly 12 months—reinforces this pattern, with no sudden spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity that might suggest neglect or infrequent use. Given the AMG Line’s performance-oriented nature, this mileage suggests the car has seen regular but not aggressive driving, which typically correlates with moderate wear on components like tyres, brakes, and suspension. The lack of mileage data beyond these two points means there’s no way to confirm whether earlier ownership periods followed the same trend, but the current record offers no red flags in this regard. For a prospective buyer, the absence of MOT advisories or defects does not eliminate the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection. Key areas to scrutinise include the suspension components—specifically the coil springs, anti-roll bars, and bushings—given the AMG Line’s sportier handling characteristics and the potential for wear under dynamic driving. The brake system, including calipers, discs, and pads, should be checked for uneven wear or binding, particularly if the vehicle has been used for spirited driving. Structural integrity is also critical; while the MOT record shows no corrosion advisories, a close examination of the underbody, wheel arches, and rear trailing arms is advisable, especially in regions prone to salt or moisture. Finally, given the short interval since the last test, verifying that all scheduled servicing—such as oil changes, filter replacements, and electrical system checks—has been completed is essential to ensure the vehicle remains in peak condition.
