2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA 2.1L Diesel · RK17 UAL

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the history reveals a consistent pattern of reactive maintenance regarding consumable items. The most recent test in July 2025 at 55,727 miles passed with only a minor defect involving the offside front wiper blade. This represents an improvement over the June 2023 failure, where the vehicle was sidelined for multiple tyre defects and a TPMS warning, suggesting the current owner now addresses faults once they are flagged. At nine years old, the recorded 55,727 miles reflect an average usage of approximately 6,200 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-mileage urban driving. The mileage progression between tests is steady, with roughly 3,200 miles covered between July 2024 and July 2025, and approximately 4,700 miles between June 2023 and July 2024. This low annual mileage reduces the strain on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples of the same age. A buyer should specifically inspect the wheel alignment and suspension geometry due to recurring reports of inner shoulder wear on multiple tyres in 2023 and 2024. The tester noted a slightly distorted nearside rear inner wheel in 2024, which indicates a previous impact or a bent rim that could cause uneven tyre degradation. Additionally, the TPMS light that was illuminated in 2023 should be verified now to ensure the sensors are functioning correctly, as failure here can mask rapid pressure loss.
