2004 Mercedes-Benz CLK 3.2L Petrol · D6 DET

This vehicle presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 13 November 2025 at 84,452 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has suffered very little mechanical degradation. The mileage is remarkably low for a twenty-two year old car, averaging roughly 3,839 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2025, the odometer rose from 77,041 to 84,452 miles. This represents a steady, low-volume usage pattern of approximately 2,470 miles per annum over the last three years. Such low usage suggests the car has avoided the typical wear and tear associated with high-mileage commuters. The absence of advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion is unusual for a 2004 model. While the MOT record is pristine, the low mileage raises the possibility of components perishing due to age rather than wear. A buyer should specifically check for perished rubber seals, tyre cracking, and potential seizing of brake calipers or suspension joints that can occur when a vehicle spends long periods stationary. The failure on 1 November 2022, which was resolved the following day at the same mileage, appears to be a minor administrative or quick-fix issue given the lack of recorded defects. There are no recurring mechanical trends to worry about. A physical inspection should focus on fluid leaks and battery health to ensure the car has not suffered from long-term dormancy.
