2022 MERCEDES-BENZ CLA 220 AMG LN PRM+ NGT ED D A1.9L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a clean bill of health on paper. The most recent MOT, conducted on 2 May 2025 at 25,794 miles, passed with zero defects. With only one recorded test in the history, there is no recurring fault pattern to analyse. The maintenance trend is stable, though the limited data means a longer-term picture of component reliability cannot be established. At roughly four years old, the recorded mileage of 25,794 miles translates to approximately 6,448 miles per year. This sits squarely within the typical range for a vehicle of this age. The single recorded test date aligns with the first MOT due date for a 2022-registered vehicle. No mileage anomalies or suspicious gaps are visible in the supplied record. The MOT record is sparse, offering no advisories or failures to guide a pre-purchase inspection strategy. A buyer should treat this as a baseline rather than a guarantee. The turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol engine and 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission have no documented faults, but a live road test remains essential. Listen for timing chain rattle on cold starts and check for jerky low-speed clutch engagement, which can indicate mechatronic wear. Focus the physical inspection on the undercarriage and suspension. Check the front lower arm bushes and anti-roll bar links for play, common on heavier AMG-Line models. Examine the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, and inspect the exhaust system for corrosion around the flexi-join. Given the clean MOT, structural rust is unlikely, but verify the inner wings and sill edges for stone chips or early corrosion, particularly if the car has been used on salted roads.
