2022 Mercedes-Benz CLA 1.3L Petrol · FA04 ADE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, as evidenced by two consecutive clean MOT results. The most recent inspection conducted in late March 2026 at 56,534 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows a successful test in March 2025 at 50,205 miles, which also showed showed no faults. The absence of recurring advisory items suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and lacks immediate mechanical or structural concerns. The mileage pattern indicates consistent use for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 14,000 miles per annum. Between the March 2025 and March 2026 tests, the car covered 6,329 miles, showing a slight deceleration in usage compared to the previous year. While the annual mileage is higher than the national average for petrol-engined cars, the lack of failures in the braking system or suspension components suggests that the vehicle has not been subjected to harsh operating conditions or long periods of neglect. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components subject to high-mileage wear rather than searching for documented faults. Examine the condition of the suspension bushes and bushings, as the higher mileage can accelerate the degradation of rubber components. Check the brake discs for uneven wear or thinning, even though the tester did not flag any binding calipers. Additionally, verify the tyre tread depth and wear patterns to ensure they are consistent with the 56,000-mile odometer reading.
