2016 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · 1 JHL

The vehicle presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 December 2025 at 29,937 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 18 December 2024 at 26,060 miles confirms no outstanding advisories carried forward. The history shows no recurring mechanical or structural faults across the five-year span reviewed. Recorded mileage sits low for a 2016 registered car. The test on 13 December 2023 logged 22,048 miles, rising to 26,059 miles by 12 December 2024 and 29,937 miles by December 2025, equating to roughly 3,000 miles annually. A failed test on 12 December 2024 at 26,059 miles listed no defects, with the same vehicle passing six days later at 26,060 miles; this points to an administrative or presentational rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the sparse clean record suggests light use with no neglected consumables flagged. Given the absence of advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or corrosion, the MOT data alone reveals no red flags for structural integrity or drivetrain wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, brake discs, and underbody for hidden rust, since the low standing mileage can mask perished rubber components and seized calipers not caught in a static test. The single anomaly remains the December 2024 fail with no defects noted. This implies a documentation error at the testing station rather than owner neglect. Overall, the record supports a well-kept low-mileage example requiring only standard pre-purchase checks.
