Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Given the very low annual mileage, the primary focus should be on the service history. Ensure that engine oil and filters have been changed at regular intervals regardless of the miles covered, as oil degradation occurs over time. Check if the rear brake discs, which were noted as worn and pitted in January 2023, have since been replaced.
Negotiate based on the age of the consumables. While the mileage is low, components like the battery and tyres can perish due to age and inactivity. Verify that the vehicle has been stored in a way that prevents dampness or rubber degradation.
The 1595cc petrol engine provides a balance of efficiency and performance, though running costs will reflect the premium nature of the brand. Insurance groups for the CLA are generally moderate to high, and road tax will be based on the 2014 emissions bracket for this engine size.
Maintenance costs are typically higher than for non-premium brands due to the cost of genuine Mercedes-Benz parts and specialised labour. Expect annual running costs to be influenced by the need for premium synthetic oils and specific tyre specifications.
Carefully inspect the rear braking system to see if the 'worn, pitted or scored' inner discs mentioned in the 2023 MOT were addressed. Check the tyres for 'flat spots' or sidewall cracking, which can occur in vehicles that spend long periods stationary, despite having plenty of tread remaining.
Additionally, test all external lighting and headlamps, as these are among the most common MOT failure points for the CLA model aggregate. Ensure the purple paintwork is consistent and check for any signs of age-related wear on the interior materials.
This purple Mercedes-Benz CLA has covered just 30,339 miles, which is significantly lower than the average for its age. The MOT record shows five consecutive passes since 2022, with the only recorded defects being minor brake disc advisories in early 2023. It represents a low-usage example of the 1.6L petrol variant.
The CLA maintains a respectable average MOT pass rate of 85%, with common failures typically limited to tyres, headlamps, and registration plates.
