2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLA 45 S 4MATIC+ Plus Auto 2.0L Petrol · SA70 ACJ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a successful test on 21 November 2025 at 71,567 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows clean passes once initial administrative or minor technical hurdles were cleared. While the vehicle failed its test on 7 November 2025 with 71,072 miles recorded, the absence of specific defect codes suggests these failures were likely due to minor rectifiable issues rather than significant mechanical failure or structural decay. Annual mileage accumulation has been inconsistent throughout the vehicle's six-year lifespan. Between August 2023 and August 2024, the vehicle covered approximately 29,105 miles, representing a period of heavy usage. In contrast, the period between August 2024 and November 2025 saw the vehicle cover roughly 12,861 miles. This indicates a shift toward more moderate usage patterns, though the high total mileage for a performance-oriented model suggests the drivetrain and chassis components have been subjected to significant operational stress. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the high-performance braking system and suspension geometry. Given the AMG 45 S platform's power output and the recorded mileage, check for uneven tyre wear patterns which could indicate misaligned suspension or worn bushes. Inspect the brake discs for excessive lipping or scoring, as these are high-cost consumables on this specific model. Verify the condition of the drivetrain and transmission mounts, as the rapid mileage accumulation in the middle of the vehicle's life may have accelerated wear on these critical components.
