2017 Mercedes-Benz CLA 1.6L Petrol · TL16 SHA

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent inspection on 20 February 2026 at 63,881 miles. The maintenance trend appears highly stable, as the car has consistently achieved clean passes following initial test failures. While the record shows failures in both 2025 and 2026, the subsequent passes with no recorded defects indicate that identified issues were rectified promptly prior to the test dates. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per annum. Between the February 2024 test at 55,747 miles and the February 2025 test at 59,799 miles, the car covered 4,052 miles, with another 4,082 miles recorded leading up to the 2026 test. This low annual mileage suggests light road use, which typically reduces the wear on heavy drivetrain components and complex suspension geometry compared to high-mile vehicles. The MOT history does not list specific mechanical reasons for the failures in 2025 and 2026, which suggests the faults may have been minor consumable items such as blown bulbs or wiper blades that were replaced immediately. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the suspension rubberwork and control arm bushings, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from material degradation over time while sitting. Checking the brake discs for pitting or binding calipers is also advisable to ensure periods of lighter use have not caused corrosion on the braking surfaces.
