2018 Mercedes-Benz CLA 1.6L Petrol · VV02 ABY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in August 2025 with 60,864 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has avoided major mechanical failures over the last four years. While the 2025 test identified advisories regarding worn front tyres, the lack of recorded defects suggests that the primary mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable parameters. The mileage pattern is consistent, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle. There is a notable gap in records between August 2022 and August 2023, where the car covered only 6,205 miles in a twelve-month period, suggesting a period of reduced use or potential storage. Since late 2023, the vehicle has returned to a regular usage cycle, covering over 10,000 miles leading up to the 2025 test. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres, as the record shows a recurring issue with wear. The 2021 test flagged all four tyres as being close to the legal limit, and the 2025 test specifically noted the front pair as being worn on the edge. This pattern often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent premature tyre degradation. Additionally, since the 2021 advisory noted thin rear brake pads, a physical inspection of the current pad thickness and discs is necessary to ensure the work was actually performed and is not nearing replacement again.
