2017 Mercedes-Benz E 1.9L Diesel · GO02 ADB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear improving maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on December 3, 2025, at 63,098 miles recorded zero defects, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This transition from multiple advisories to a clean pass suggests the current ownership is proactive regarding necessary safety-critical repairs. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year over its nine-year life. Between December 2021 at 34,176 miles and December 2024 at 54,965 miles, the car covered 20,789 miles, showing steady annual usage. This low mileage generally preserves the longevity of the drivetrain and engine, though it can occasionally lead to rubber-based components hardening if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyres given the recurring flags in the history. The 2021 test at 34,176 miles flagged thin brake pads on both rear brake assemblies alongside a worn offside rear tyre, while the 2024 test at 54,965 miles noted a nearside rear tyre worn on the edge. These patterns point toward potential alignment issues or uneven suspension wear. You should verify the current depth of the rear brake pads and check for uneven tyre wear across all axles to ensure the previous issues are not recurring since the latest MOT pass.
