2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK 1.8L Petrol · SO51 SHO

This Mercedes-Benz CLK presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 26 June 2025 at 135,518 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has undergone preventative maintenance outside of the testing cycle. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 7,972 miles per year. Between 15 November 2021 and 29 April 2023, the car covered 9,555 miles. The usage remained steady thereafter, adding 3,120 miles by May 2024 and a further 1,764 miles by June 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or sudden heavy commercial use. The absence of any recorded advisories over the last five years is unusual for a seventeen year old vehicle. The tester flagged no issues with suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc thickness across multiple tests. While the record is clean, a buyer should still manually inspect the chassis and wheel arches for surface corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook minor rust that does not compromise structural integrity. Given the lack of failure data, focus your physical inspection on the drivetrain and electronics. Check for smooth gear transitions and ensure the air conditioning and auxiliary systems function correctly. While the MOT history suggests a well-cared-for example, the lack of documented wear on consumables like tyres or wiper blades implies the previous owner likely replaced these items before the vehicle reached the testing station.
