2019 Mercedes-Benz A 180 AMG Line D 1.5L Diesel · YR69 CUU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive service pattern. While it passed its most recent test in May 2026 at 85,904 miles, it had failed just two miles prior due to mismatched tyre sizes on the nearside rear axle. This indicates a failure to perform a basic safety check prior to the MOT appointment. The overall trend for consumable items remains inconsistent, with brake components and tyres being addressed only after reaching points of failure or receiving significant advisories. At 85,904 miles over seven years, this Mercedes has covered an average of approximately 12,272 miles per year. This sits above the national average and places higher demand on the drivetrain and suspension components. The data shows a significant surge in usage between April 2024 and May 2025, where the vehicle clocked 19,402 miles in just thirteen months. This high-intensity usage period often accelerates the wear of suspension bushes, bushings, and de-shassis-related components typical of the AMG Line specification. A buyer must closely inspect the braking system, as the record shows a recurring history of worn and pitted discs. Between the 2024 and 2025 tests, all four brake discs were flagged for wear or scoring, and the 2024 failure for rear pads being below the legal 1.5mm limit suggests the previous owner waited until components were at the point of failure before replacement. Additionally, the advisories regarding perishing tyres in 2025 and the 2026 failure for mismatched tyres necessitate a thorough check of the current alignment and suspension geometry to ensure uneven wear is not causing mechanical damage.
