Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on April 3, 2025 at 108,334 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests the previous owner was proactive in rectifying immediate issues to ensure continued compliance. The history indicates a clean operational record without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation over the last several testing cycles. At 108,334 miles over nine years, this CLA has averaged approximately 12,000 miles per annum, which sits above the national average for a passenger vehicle. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with 12,415 miles covered between November 2022 and March 2024, and another 12,167 miles in the fourteen months leading up to the latest test. This regular use typically indicates the vehicle has been driven frequently, which helps prevent issues like seized brakes caused by long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. Given the mileage, it is necessary to check for signs of worn coil springs, perished suspension bushes, and play in the ball joints, which often manifest after six figure miles. The braking system should be evaluated for thin discs or uneven pad wear, as high mileage accelerates this consumable depletion. While the MOT record shows no structural corrosion, a visual check of the underbody for surface rust remains a standard professional precaution for a vehicle of this age.
