2019 Mercedes-Benz CLA 1.6L Petrol · SC68 AEG

This vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record in its most recent inspections. The August 2025 test at 28,676 miles passed without any defects or advisories, mirroring the result from the August 2024 test at 24,066 miles. This indicates the car is currently in a healthy mechanical state with no immediate failures flagged by the DVSA. The mileage is exceptionally low for a seven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,097 miles per year. The usage pattern shows a significant drop in activity between November 2022 and November 2023, where the odometer only moved 1,874 miles over a full year. Such low annual mileage often suggests the car has spent periods standing, which can sometimes lead to dormant issues like battery degradation or perished rubber seals. A recurring trend regarding tyre maintenance appears in the earlier records. The tester flagged an offside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit in both November 2022 at 21,774 miles and November 2023 at 23,648 miles. The fact that the same fault persisted across two consecutive annual tests suggests the previous owner neglected basic consumable upkeep. A nail in the nearside rear tyre was also noted in December 2021 at 17,586 miles. A buyer should specifically inspect the current tyre tread depths and check for uneven wear on the rear axle, as the repeated advisories may point to underlying tracking or alignment issues. Given the low mileage and periods of inactivity, checking the brake discs for surface corrosion and verifying the battery health is advisable. No structural integrity issues or suspension failures are present in the history, suggesting the chassis remains sound.
