2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA 1.6L Petrol · AH63 ANA

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 August 2025 at 98,176 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the preceding tests show the same clean outcome. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has not required rectification work within the recorded MOT cycle. Mileage progression sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old car. The record shows 61,875 miles on 12 April 2023, rising to 80,206 by 17 April 2024, then 86,762 on 3 September 2024, and 98,176 by August 2025. Annual use averages close to 9,800 miles with no abrupt jumps or prolonged standing periods. The duplicate 12 April 2023 entry shows a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage, with no defects listed, pointing to an administrative re-test rather than a genuine mechanical defect. Given the absence of flagged wear on brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, or corrosion, the buyer faces low documented risk from prior neglect. The clean record suggests previous owners kept consumables and structural items within test limits. A duplicate failure with no defects on the same date implies clerical processing rather than deferred maintenance. In person, the buyer should still verify tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and underbody structural integrity, as these items escape MOT notation when compliant. The clean history warrants only standard pre-purchase checks rather than targeted fault investigation.
