2017 Mercedes-Benz CLA 2.1L Diesel · NP14 YNE

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in the most recent MOT test conducted on 13 June 2025 at 77,158 miles. This latest result recorded no defects, indicating that the primary mechanical and safety components met the required standards at that time. While the history shows intermittent failures in previous years, the trend toward clean test certificates suggests that the current owner has addressed identified issues and maintained the vehicle to a functional standard. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per annum. Between June 2023 and June 2024, the car covered 4,010 miles, while it added 3,944 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This steady, low accumulation indicates regular road use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for drivetrain components and rubber-based seals to prevent degradation. The intervals between tests have remained annual, showing a consistent approach to the statutory minimum testing requirements. A buyer should note that the vehicle suffered two recent failures in June 2023 and June 2024. Although the specific reasons for these failures are not detailed in the summary provided, the proximity of these failures to successful passes suggests that items requiring adjustment or minor replacement were being rectified immediately. Given the age and mileage, a physical inspection should focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are prone to wear. Checking for any emerging corrosion on the chassis is also advisable to ensure the structural integrity remains sound as the vehicle ages further.
