2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA 2.1L Diesel · LC64 AEV

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 March 2025 at 67,579 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean passes from February 2022 onward. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available history, indicating consistent compliance with statutory test standards. Annual mileage sits low for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The record shows 57,872 miles at the February 2022 tests, rising to 61,242 by February 2023, 65,499 by February 2024, and 67,579 by March 2025. That equates to roughly 2,000 to 4,000 miles per year, well below the national average. The only anomaly is a failed test on 3 February 2022 at 57,872 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed by a pass on 4 February 2022 at identical mileage, suggesting an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Given the clean test lineage, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as low-mileage cars left standing often develop perished rubber components and surface corrosion unseen in a pass result. The absence of advisories does not exempt the vehicle from age-related wear on exhaust emissions systems and structural underbody points. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic statutory standard with no deferred consumable replacements flagged. A pre-purchase check of tyre sidewall condition and binding calipers remains prudent given the extended dormant periods implied by the low annual use.
