2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA 1.6L Petrol · AF67 PMU

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 September 2025 at 69,341 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across every annual examination since 2021. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,705 miles per year against the vehicle's nine-year age, a typical usage profile for this class. The records show a clean and consistent pattern with no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any interval. One anomaly appears in the 2021 to 2022 figures: the test on 22 September 2021 logged 58,040 miles, yet the 1 September 2022 test shows only 42,794 miles. That 15,246-mile reversal indicates either a clerical error at a test centre or a replacement odometer unit, and the buyer should verify the true mileage through service invoices. With no recurring faults, binding calipers, worn coil springs, or structural integrity concerns flagged in the history, the GLA requires only standard pre-purchase checks. A buyer should still inspect the underbody for hidden corrosion and confirm the condition of consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades, which the MOT does not detail when within limits. The unexplained 2021 to 2022 mileage drop warrants a physical inspection of the dashboard clocks and a cross-check against the V5C and dealer history before completion.
