MERCEDES-BENZ S-Class2015 · 3.0L DIESEL

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 20 August 2025 at 63,451 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and emissions standards. This trend of clean passes across the last three years suggests a stable approach to preventative maintenance and a lack of recurring mechanical failures. The mileage profile is notably low for an eleven-year-old S-Class, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per year. There is a significant gap between the November 2022 test at 37,265 miles and the November 2023 test at 54,030 miles, where the vehicle covered over 16,000 miles in a single year. However, usage has since tapered considerably, with only 9,421 miles recorded since the August 2025 test. This low overall annual mileage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and interior components compared to high-mileage examples of this model. Despite the lack of recorded MOT faults, a buyer should focus on specific areas common to low-mileage luxury vehicles. Long periods of standing can lead to degradation of rubber-based components, such as suspension bushes and engine seals, which may perish or crack. The inspector should check for binding brake calipers or corrosion on the discs, as infrequent use often prevents the surfaces from clearing. Given the age of the vehicle, the integrity of the tyres and the condition of the fluid levels are as critical as the mechanical data recorded in the DVSA database.
