MERCEDES-BENZ GLA2018 · 2.1L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of mechanical volatility. The most recent MOT test conducted on 28 August 2025 at 57,194 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all legal and safety standards. This follows a period of inconsistency in 2024 where the vehicle failed just before a successful test, but the subsequent clean records suggest that any identified issues were addressed and rectified. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-mileage usage, averaging approximately 7,150 miles per year. There is a notable two-year gap between the August 2022 test at 40,189 miles and the July 2024 test at 49,455 miles, during which the vehicle covered under 9,000 miles. The rapid accumulation of 7,700 miles between July 2024 and August 2025 indicates a recent increase in usage, though the overall annual average remains low. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific reason for the failure on 28 August 2024 at 49,475 miles, Although the record does not specify the defect, the proximity to a passing test a month later suggests a component replacement or adjustment was made immediately. Given the age and low mileage, an inspection of the suspension bushes and brake caliper seals is advisable, as these components can degrade during long periods of standing. The lack of structural advisories in the last three tests suggests the structural integrity of the chassis remains sound.
