Should you buy a used Mercedes-benz C 220 AMG Line Premium D Auto?

The Mercedes-benz C 220 AMG Line Premium D Auto has an overall MOT pass rate of 90.9% across 1,110 real MOT tests — comfortably above the UK average, which puts it among the more reliable models on UK roads.

A typical Mercedes-benz C 220 AMG Line Premium D Auto owner drives around 9,498 miles per year. If the car you're looking at is significantly above this, expect more wear on suspension, brakes and tyres.

Before committing to a purchase, we recommend running a full vehicle history check on the specific car. This will reveal any outstanding finance, stolen markers, write-off history and mileage discrepancies that the seller may not disclose — and that the MOT data alone can't tell you.
