2022 Mercedes-Benz CLA 1.3L Petrol · BUG 6

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT test in May 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car achieved two clean sheets in its previous two inspections. However, the most recent test at 18,999 miles introduced the first advisory regarding the nearside and offside front tyres, indicating the onset of minor material degradation despite the low annual mileage. The mileage profile is notably low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,750 miles per year. A significant gap in usage occurred between the May 2024 test at 3,332 miles and the May 2025 test at 12,286 miles, representing nearly 9,000 miles in a single year. While the low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, the intermittent nature of the use can sometimes lead to rubber components drying out or brake components corroding if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the sidewalls to assess the extent of the cracking noted in the 2026 record. Because the car has travelled infrequently, the tyres may be suffering from age rather than tread wear, necessitating a replacement if the rubber has perished. You should also check the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, which is common on low-mileage vehicles that are not used daily. The record shows no history of structural corrosion or mechanical failures, suggesting the underlying chassis remains in good condition.
