2018 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE3.0L DIESEL

The vehicle maintains a generally roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 June 2026 at 64,172 miles. While the tester flagged an advisory for a worn nearside front anti-roll bar linkage pin or bush, this represents a minor mechanical wear item rather than an immediate safety failure. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle transitioned from a clean sheet in 2025 to minor suspension component wear recently. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. The record shows steady usage with a 5,928-mile interval between the June 2025 and June 2026 tests, and another 6,738 miles between 2024 and 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle undergoes regular use rather than long periods of inactivity, which is generally beneficial for the seals and rubber components in a Mercedes GLE. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and braking system. The June 2024 test identified both front tyres as being close to the legal limit and showing edge wear, which often indicates minor alignment issues or worn shock absorbers. Furthermore, the February 2023 entry noted worn brake discs at 41,176 miles; the current thickness of these discs should be verified to ensure they are not nearing replacement. The recent advisory on the anti-roll bar linkage should also be checked for play or knocking sounds to prevent a future failure in the next test.
