This 2002 Mercedes C270 Cdi has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 44,861 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the high mileage for its age and recurring brake advisories warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 13,110 miles/year, with a significant spike of +16,595 miles between Apr 2006 and Jun 2007, and a 2010 MOT gap.

Things to check

  • Mileage is high for its age (44,861 mi over 24 years), indicating more wear.
  • Major failure for Offside Rear coil spring fractured on 2008-07-15.
  • Major failure for Nearside Front Tyre lump on 2008-07-15.
  • Brake advisories (pads wearing thin) noted in 3 separate tests (Mar 2013, Mar 2012, Jul 2009).

Working in its favour

  • No recurring major failures across different systems.
  • Immediate retest passes after both 2008 failures.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since the 2013 pass.
