2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS 350 D AMG Line Prem + 4M A 2.9L Heavy oil · MXZ 555

A pattern of consistent roadworthiness is evident in the recent MOT history, despite a single failure recorded on 05 May 2025 that was rectified prior to the subsequent pass on 08 May 2025. The vehicle has maintained a clean record across its most recent testing cycle, with no defects or advisories noted in the 2024 or 2023 tests. This indicates a stable regulatory history where the mechanical components subject to MOT inspection have met the required standards without recurring issues such as corrosion, fluid leaks, or suspension wear being formally flagged. The vehicle exhibits an unusually low mileage profile for its age, having covered only 27,453 miles over approximately seven years. This equates to an average annual accumulation of roughly 3,922 miles, which is significantly below the typical UK average for a premium diesel saloon of this class. While low mileage generally implies less wear on high-use components like the drivetrain and braking system, such infrequent usage can sometimes lead to secondary mechanical concerns. For a vehicle with this specific usage pattern, the lack of regular high-speed or long-distance running can occasionally result in less frequent exercise of engine components and seals. Given the absence of specific advisories in the DVSA records, there are no documented issues regarding brake pipe corrosion, subframe integrity, or suspension bush degradation to target. However, because the mileage is low and the vehicle has likely spent significant periods stationary, a prospective buyer should pay close attention to the condition of rubber components and fluid health. During a test drive, listen for any irregular knocks or clunks from the suspension linkages or coil springs that might indicate perished bushes, and check for any hesitation in the engine's response or unusual vibrations that could stem from long periods of inactivity. Specific attention should also be directed toward the braking system and tyre condition. Although no defects were recorded, the low annual mileage means the tyres may have more tread depth than expected but could be subject to age-related hardening. Check for any pedal judder or pulling under braking to ensure the discs and calipers have not suffered from surface corrosion due to infrequent use. Ensuring that the vehicle's fluids have been changed according to time intervals rather than just mileage is a critical factor for a vehicle with this specific usage profile.
