2015 MERCEDES-BENZ CLS3.0L Diesel

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz CLS presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 8 May 2025 at 25,353 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior four tests show the same clean outcome. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the history, so the maintenance record shows no worsening or recurring faults. The mileage pattern confirms very light use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record shows 12,597 miles at the 6 July 2022 test, rising to 15,061 miles by 25 July 2023, then 17,097 miles on 31 May 2024, and 25,353 miles by May 2025. That final jump of 8,256 miles in twelve months is the only period of heavier use; before it the car averaged well under 3,000 miles per year. The 31 May 2024 entry lists both a fail and a pass at identical mileage with no defects recorded, which points to an administrative retest rather than a genuine mechanical defect. Given the clean MOT history, the buyer faces no flagged structural or mechanical risks from the record itself. Low annual mileage over several years suggests the car stood unused for long periods, which can allow brake calipers to seize, tyres to develop flat spots, and underseal or sills to gather moisture corrosion even when the tester found none. A pre-purchase inspection should still check brake disc condition, suspension bushes, and hidden chassis rust. The absence of advisories across five tests implies the previous owners kept basic consumables within limits, though the 2024 duplicate entry shows the DVSA log is not perfectly clean. Verify the stated 25,353 miles against service stamps and V5C before purchase, as the sharp rise in the last year warrants confirmation of genuine odometer readings.
