- Coil spring: fractured or broken. On 2.6% of Mercedes-Benz A-Class tests, 1.4 times the rate for cars of the same age.

- Brake pads worn below 1.5mm. On 1.8% of Mercedes-Benz A-Class tests.
The MOT checks safety and emissions items, not the engine, clutch or gearbox, so this is one measure of how each car holds up rather than a full reliability verdict. These figures describe the model, all its versions together, not this particular car.
