2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA 2.1L Diesel · EY65 FXD

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz GLA presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 30 April 2025 at 96,101 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The vehicle has cleared every annual examination since 2022 without advisories, indicating consistent upkeep rather than deferred repair. Annual mileage sits at a typical 8,736 miles for an eleven-year-old car. The record shows steady accumulation: 54,759 miles at the May 2022 test, 68,090 by April 2023, 83,382 by May 2024, and 96,101 by April 2025. No large gaps or sudden spikes appear. The clean sheet across all passes, with no corrosion, suspension bush, brake disc, or emission flags, suggests the previous keeper addressed wear before each test. One anomaly warrants scrutiny. On 5 May 2022 the GLA failed and passed on the same day at 54,759 miles, both entries showing no defects recorded. This points to an administrative or data-recording irregularity rather than a mechanical fault, but a buyer should confirm with the selling garage what triggered the initial failure. Given the absence of advisories in the history, no recurring consumable or structural concerns emerge from the MOT data. A pre-purchase inspection should still verify underbody structural integrity, suspension component condition, and brake caliper operation, as these areas escape MOT notation until they degrade past test limits. The clean record implies diligent ownership, yet physical confirmation remains prudent at 96,101 miles.
