MERCEDES-BENZ E2016 · 2.1L DIESEL

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 28 August 2025 at 34,421 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This trend of perfect scores over the last five years suggests that the vehicle has been well-maintained and that the mechanical and structural components have operated without significant failure or deferred maintenance requirements. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,442 miles per annum. Between September 2021 and August 2025, the car covered only 12,025 miles, indicating a pattern of light short-distance use or long periods of storage. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it can also introduce specific risks related to age rather than distance, such as the degradation of rubber-based components and potential fluid breakdown if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. Given the lack of recorded recorded advisories in the history, a prospective buyer should focus on specific areas associated with low-mileage vehicles. A physical inspection should check for surface corrosion on the brake discs and calipers, which can occur when a car is not used frequently enough to clear away rust. One should also inspect the suspension bushes for cracking or dry rot, as these materials perish over time regardless of how few miles are driven. Verifying the age of the tyres is equally critical, as the rubber can age out long before the tread reaches the legal limit.
