AI buyer's package Full Check Plus

A well-kept 2019 CLA 180 with a clean history — a solid buy at the right price.

Private values sit around £15,300–£15,600; anything under £15,000 is a strong deal given the clean MOT record and single keeper.

Common faults to check on this model

1.3L M282 engine Can show higher oil use or timing-chain wear if services are stretched. Check: full service history; listen for rattle on a cold start.
7-speed DCT gearbox The dual-clutch can jerk at low speed or throw mechatronic faults. Check: test-drive from cold; feel for hesitation or clunks pulling away.
AMG Line suspension Stiffer set-up wears bushes faster on poor roads. Check: listen for knocks over bumps; inspect bushes for cracks.

Inspection checklist

  • Confirm the mileage against the MOT history readings.
  • Check the front tyres — past MOTs flagged them close to the limit.
  • Verify the number plate matches the V5C (recent plate transfers on record).

Negotiation levers

  • Two past MOT failures for non-conforming plates — minor, but a lever.
  • Front-tyre advisories suggest replacement cost coming up.
  • Dealer price (£17,650) vs private average (£15,289) — room to negotiate.

AI-generated guidance based on the vehicle's data — always verify independently.
