AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently not roadworthy. The most recent MOT on 7 December 2024 recorded 118,131 miles and returned a pass with no defects. The preceding four tests from October 2021 through December 2023 all passed cleanly, indicating a stable maintenance pattern. Mileage accumulation has been steady. Between October 2021 (100,974 miles) and December 2024 (118,131 miles) the car added roughly 17,200 miles in three years, averaging about 5,700 miles per year—well within the expected range for an 18‑year‑old CLS. MOT intervals have been consistent, each falling within the usual 11‑ to 12‑month window, and no test has reported recurring faults. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, check the brake calipers for binding and the discs for uneven thickness, and examine the exhaust for corrosion. Structural panels around the wheel arches and underbody should be inspected for rust, and the tyre tread depth should be measured against the legal 1.6 mm limit. A visual check of the wiper blades and the condition of the battery will also reveal any neglected consumables.
