MERCEDES-BENZ CLA2014 · 2.1L DIESEL

The vehicle is in solid roadworthiness condition, with its most recent MOT passed on 23 July 2025 at 88,788 miles with no defects recorded. This continues a clear trend of clean passes over the last four consecutive tests, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical failures. The absence of advisories or failures since 2021 suggests the car has been well looked after, with no signs of deterioration in critical systems. The mileage progression is steady and typical for a vehicle of this age, averaging around 7,400 miles per year. Between 2021 and 2025, the car accumulated 46,515 miles over four years, with annual increments of roughly 12,000 to 16,000 miles — all within normal usage patterns. There are no unexplained gaps in the MOT history, and the consistent annual testing confirms regular compliance. The lack of sudden spikes or long lapses in service records supports the impression of routine ownership and care. The only historical issue was a minor advisories in 2021 regarding the nearside front dip beam light output, which has not recurred. This points to a simple bulb or connector fault that was likely addressed promptly. With no advisories since then, there are no red flags for suspension wear, brake component degradation, exhaust integrity, or structural corrosion. However, as the car approaches 90,000 miles, a buyer should verify the condition of the timing chain, valve cover gaskets, and rear brake calipers — common wear items on this model at this mileage. The suspension bushes and coil springs should also be checked for signs of hardening or cracking, as these often show wear after a decade of use even with moderate mileage.
