AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Mercedes-Benz CLA passed its most recent MOT on 26 July 2025 at 38,351 miles, leaving it roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend and no failed tests on record. The tester raised three advisories only: worn but not excessive rear brake discs and both front inner tyres close to the legal limit on their edges. These are minor consumable and surface-wear items rather than structural or mechanical defects, and the single clean pass shows no worsening pattern across the vehicle's short history. At roughly four years old the car shows 38,351 miles, an average of about 9,588 miles per year, which is typical for its age and points to moderate private use rather than high-load driving or long standing periods. The MOT data contains just the one entry from July 2025, so no mileage gaps or rapid accumulation can be judged; the sparse record simply confirms low-to-normal wear for a 2022 derivative with no earlier tests logged. A buyer should still inspect the front inner tyre edges in person, as both sides wore close to the limit by the last test and may now be illegal without replacement. The rear brake discs were noted as worn but within tolerance; measure their thickness and check for lip or scoring before purchase. No suspension bushes, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emission faults appear in the record, so structural integrity looks sound on paper, but a physical underside check remains sensible given the limited test coverage.

Our Verdict

A strong recommendation for buyers seeking a modern, premium coupe. While it shows some signs of wear on consumables, the vehicle remains a low-risk purchase given its age and Euro 6 status.

When viewing this specific CLA, focus your negotiation on the consumables. The July 2025 MOT flagged that both nearside and offside front inner tyres are worn close to the legal limit, and the rear brake discs are showing wear. Since these are immediate maintenance requirements, you should ask the seller to replace the front tyres or reflect the cost in the final price.

Ensure the service history is complete and follows the Mercedes-Benz scheduled intervals. Given the 1.3L engine's efficiency, check for any evidence of oil leaks or coolant loss, though these are not indicated in the MOT history for this specific registration.

Operating costs for this 1.3L petrol engine are relatively competitive for the premium segment. Being Euro 6 AP compliant, it avoids most ULEZ and Clean Air Zone charges across the UK, making it an ideal choice for city drivers.

Annual costs will be driven primarily by insurance and fuel. As a premium brand, insurance groups for the CLA tend to be mid-to-high. Maintenance costs will be typical for Mercedes-Benz, with a higher premium for genuine parts and dealership labour.

Pay close attention to the front tyres. The MOT history specifically mentions inner edge wear on both the nearside and offside front tyres, which could suggest an alignment issue. Request a wheel alignment check to ensure the new tyres don't wear prematurely.

Additionally, inspect the rear brake discs. While the 2025 MOT noted they were worn but not excessively, they are nearing the end of their effective life. Check for any scoring or lip formation on the discs to determine if a full replacement is now necessary.

This 2022 white Mercedes-Benz CLA is a contemporary example of the range, powered by a 1.3L petrol engine. With 38,351 miles on the clock as of July 2025, it has been used moderately for its age. The recent MOT history indicates a well-maintained vehicle, although it highlights a need for imminent tyre and brake maintenance.

Aggregate data for this specific model is unavailable, but the vehicle's individual history shows a clean pass on its most recent inspection.
