2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA 2.1L Diesel · AD52 NEL

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 February 2026 at 78,898 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following an anomalous failure on the same date and mileage that listed no defects, indicating an administrative or data-entry issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior annual tests in March 2025, March 2024, and March 2023 all passed cleanly with no advisories, showing no worsening pattern across the recorded history. Mileage stands at 78,898 against an 11-year lifespan, averaging roughly 7,173 miles per year, which is typical for the vehicle's age. The records show steady annual accumulation: 51,927 miles in March 2023, 61,099 in March 2024, 70,699 in March 2025, and 78,898 by February 2026. No gaps or sudden jumps appear. The clean advisory-free history across all five entries suggests the previous keeper kept consumables and structural items within test limits, though sparse commentary means wear between tests is undocumented. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as the MOT record offers no insight into component life once past the pass threshold. The twin 25 February 2026 entries with a no-defect failure warrant confirmation that the V5C and DVSA portal show a valid current certificate. Given the GLA's age, check underneath for corrosion at subframe mounts and inspect exhaust emissions under load, neither of which the clean tests would have flagged beyond the pass standard.
