2023 Mercedes Benz Amg Cla 35 Premium + 4matic A
CarHunch is tracking 210 2023 Mercedes Benz Amg Cla 35 Premium + 4matic A vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 2023 AMG CLA 35 is failing its first MOT at an alarming rate—just 5.7% pass on the first attempt versus the UK average of 80%. The dangerous defect rate of 1.4% is mercifully low, but the near-total failure to pass first time is a serious red flag for any buyer considering this car.
With only 21,302 miles on average, these vehicles are brand new and should be bulletproof, yet something systemic is clearly wrong during their initial MOTs. The fact that average failures are minimal (0.03 per vehicle) suggests these aren't catastrophic breakdowns but rather issues that should never occur on a car this young and low-mileage—likely manufacturing or dealer prep defects. Before purchasing, insist on a pre-delivery inspection by an independent Mercedes specialist and verify the dealer has fully resolved any outstanding MOT failures.
We have 210 2023 Mercedes Benz Amg Cla 35 Premium + 4matic A vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 2023 Mercedes Benz Amg Cla 35 Premium + 4matic A
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
