2003 Mercedes CLK 2.6L Petrol · HF53 RXH

The official DVSA record indicates a stable roadworthiness status, culminating in the September 2023, September 2024, and September 2025 tests all passing without a single recorded defect or advisory at 152,979 miles. This unblemished recent sequence shows a complete absence of failure notices across the last three years of annual inspections. The vehicle has accumulated 152,979 miles over its twenty-three years on the road, translating to an average of approximately 6,651 miles annually. The MOT history exhibits a consistent annual cadence every September from 2021 through 2025, showing regular use without prolonged periods of storage or erratic mileage accumulation spikes between tests. Prospective buyers must perform a thorough physical inspection despite the clean recent test sheets, focusing particularly on structural corrosion beneath the chassis and subframes, which is common in Mercedes-Benz models of this era. Check the suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers for wear, alongside the integrity of the braking system components including the discs and calipers, as clean digital records do not guarantee the condition of hidden mechanical parts.
