Our Verdict

This is a strong candidate for buyers se

When inspecting this AMG CLA 45 S, focus on the high-performance components. Because the mileage is significantly higher than the model average, you should check the wear levels on the brake discs and pads, as these are critical on high-output 2.0L petrol engines. Ensure the service history reflects the manufacturer's requirements for the AMG variant, specifically regarding oil change intervals.

Negotiate based on the mileage; while the MOT is clean, the vehicle has covered nearly 40,000 miles in roughly three and a half years. Check the condition of the tyres, as 'tyre' is one of the most common failure reasons for this model across our aggregate data. Verify that the 4MATIC+ system operates smoothly without any unusual noises during a test drive.

As a high-performance 1991cc petrol engine, running costs will be higher than a standard CLA. Expect higher fuel consumption due to the AMG tuning, and insurance groups for this model are typically high.

Maintenance costs should be budgeted for premium parts, particularly tyres and brakes. While the Euro 6 status helps with certain urban driving restrictions, the overall annual running cost will be substantial compared to a non-AMG vehicle.

Start by reviewing the MOT history for any recurring issues. While this specific vehicle passed in 2025 with no defects, the aggregate data for this model suggests you should pay close attention to tyres and registration plates, which are frequent failure points.

Specifically for this 2023 model, inspect the low-profile tyres for uneven wear and check the road wheels for any signs of damage or corrosion, as 'road wheel badly' is a noted failure reason in the wider model data. Given the mileage, a thorough inspection of the suspension components and the 4MATIC+ drivetrain is also advised.

Registered in March 2023, this Grey Mercedes-Benz AMG CLA 45 S has covered 39,617 miles as of its September 2025 MOT. The vehicle passed its most recent test with no defects recorded, which is a positive indicator for its current roadworthiness. Compared to the model average of 7,941 miles per year, this vehicle has been driven more intensively than the typical example in our dataset.

The AMG CLA 45 S shows an 86.4% average MOT pass rate across 1,297 analysed vehicles, with common failures relating to tyres and wheels.
