2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA 2.1L Diesel · DF68 AFJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on 5 December 2025 at 44,430 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just two days prior. This pattern suggests that any issues identified during the inspections were minor and rectified immediately before the re-test. The lack of advisories across the last three years indicates the vehicle has maintained a high standard of overall mechanical presentation. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,554 miles per year. The data shows consistent annual usage, with roughly 6,000 miles covered between the December 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 6,373 miles covered between December 2024 and December 2025. This low-frequency usage typically implies less strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though low mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts or seals if the car sits for extended periods. While the MOT record is clean, a buyer should verify the specific reasons for the failures in December 2024 and December 2025, as no defects were officially listed in the summary. These were likely minor consumable items such as light bulbs, wiper blades, or minor adjustments that required immediate attention. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should check for corrosion on brake discs and tyre sidewall cracking, which can occur regardless of tread depth. The absence of structural corrosion advisories in the history suggests the chassis remains in good condition.
