2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS 2.1L Diesel · LR66 UNB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT six days ago at 72,637 miles. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, though the most recent inspection indicates the onset of component wear that requires attention. While the 2025 test was clean, the June 2026 result flagged front brake discs as pitted or scored, suggesting the braking system is reaching the end of its effective life and requires replacement. At 72,637 miles over ten years, the CLS has averaged approximately 7,200 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a premium executive tourer. The record shows consistent intervals, with a gap of roughly 3,300 miles between November 2023 and September 2025, and another 5,700 miles between September 2025 and June 2026. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods ofກັບ, which helps protect rubber-based components and seals from degradation. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the mechanical components highlighted in the December 2022 test. The tester previously identified an offside front wheel bearing with slight play and a nearside rear tyre worn to the legal limit. While these specific issues may have been addressed, the wheel bearing should be checked for any audible noise or movement during a test drive. Additionally, the deteriorated bonnet primary retaining device noted in 2022 should be verified to ensure the bonnet latches securely and operates without excessive tension.
