2017 Mercedes-Benz CLA 2.1L Diesel · OW17 RYA

The vehicle currently holds a valid roadworthiness status following a clean pass on July 1, 2025 at 73,782 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful re-tests. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed its initial presentation only to pass five days later, suggesting that minor mechanical issues were identified and rectified immediately before the re-test. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,200 miles per annum. There is a notable gap between the December 2022 test at 61,259 miles and the June 2024 test at 68,780 miles, during which the car covered roughly 7,500 miles. Between June 2024 and July 2025, the vehicle covered 5,002 miles, indicating a consistent but moderate usage pattern that generally reduces the strain on drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should focus on the specific components that caused the recent failures in 2024 and 2025, as the provided record shows failures without listing the specific defects. These recurring failures likely involve consumable items such as light bulbs, wiper blades, or minor leaks that required adjustment. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and the condition of the brake discs remains advisable to ensure no significant corrosion or wear has developed since the last clean record.
