2014 MERCEDES-BENZ CLA1.6L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful test on June 2, 2026. The maintenance trend shows a recent period of instability, evidenced by a failure recorded just two miles prior at 134,226 miles. This failure resulted from a faulty supplementary restraint system warning lamp and a failed offside dipped beam. The fact that these issues were rectified immediately to secure a pass the same day suggests the owner is responsive to safety-critical defects when flagged by the tester. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,200 miles per year. Between the May 2024 test at 107,253 miles and the May 2025 test at 120,379 miles, the car covered 13,126 miles, indicating steady annual use. The most recent interval of 13,849 miles over the last year confirms this high-frequency usage, which accelerates long-term wear on mechanical components. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system, as the May 2024 record flagged inner rear brake discs as being worn. While noted as not excessively worn at that time, the subsequent 27,000 miles of travel mean these components may be nearing the end of their service life. The SRS warning lamp failure warrants a diagnostic check to ensure the fault was merely a sensor or wiring rather than an underlying airbag module issue. Given the high mileage, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and underbody for structural corrosion is also advisable, as these are common points of degradation on this platform after 130,000 miles.
