MERCEDES-BENZ E2013 · 2.1L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean sheet across the three most recent inspections. The MOT test conducted in April 2026 at 61,024 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that any mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This trend suggests a consistent approach to maintenance where the owner proactively remediates potential faults before they escalate into test failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,700 miles per year. Data from the 2022 test at 47,059 miles compared to the 2026 test at 61,024 miles shows consistent usage patterns of roughly 3,500 miles annually. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts and brake components if the car sits stationary for extended periods without regular use. The only significant mechanical flag occurred in May 2023 at 50,976 miles, where the tester identified slight play in both the nearside and offside front wheel bearings. The absence of these faults in the subsequent 2024, 2025, and 2026 records confirms these components were replaced. A buyer should still physically inspect the front suspension for signs of perished bushes and check the brake discs for corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from age-related material rot rather than mechanical wear.
