UK

This 1995 Mercedes C220 Auto falls outside the DVLA's light-vehicle MOT database—no test statistics are available for this cohort, so we cannot compare its actual pass rates or defect patterns to the UK average of 80%. What we do know is that the 163 vehicles analysed represent a 29-year-old executive saloon from the early W202 generation, a period when Mercedes built genuinely durable cars but one where surviving examples are now genuinely rare on UK roads.

At this age, any C220 Auto you find will almost certainly have substantial mileage and decades of wear. Before buying, have a trusted independent Mercedes specialist conduct a full pre-purchase inspection focusing on the automatic gearbox (expensive to repair), cooling system reliability, and rust in the floor pan and rear arches—these are the real failure points on cars this old, not MOT pass rates. Expect high maintenance costs and plan for major works; this is a car for enthusiasts with deep pockets, not everyday transport.

MOT statistics not available

We have 163 1995 Mercedes C220 Auto vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

  • Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
  • Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
  • MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
  • Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
