2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA 2.1L Diesel · LS16 HCC

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLA presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 December 2025 at 108,054 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 11 December 2024 at 96,146 miles confirms no outstanding advisories have carried forward. The history shows no mechanical or structural faults flagged across the full sequence of examinations. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 10,800 miles per year against the 108,054 miles recorded. The jump from 73,373 miles on the failed 23 November 2023 test to 74,106 miles on the pass twelve days later shows minimal use in that window. A larger climb to 96,146 miles by December 2024 and then to 108,054 by December 2025 reflects consistent annual coverage near the expected norm, with no abrupt gaps or excessive accumulation suggesting neglect or harsh duty cycles. The two failure entries from 11 December 2024 and 23 November 2023 both list no defects recorded, indicating administrative or presentation anomalies in the DVLA log rather than genuine mechanical rejections. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, exhaust emissions, or tyres appear at any stage, so the record gives no evidence of recurring wear trends requiring corrective action. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, suspension components, and brake calipers given the age and six-figure mileage, as MOT passes without advisories do not capture incipient wear below test thresholds. Verify service history independently, since the clean test sequence implies reasonable upkeep but offers no insight into consumable intervals like transmission fluid or timing chain condition.
