2017 Mercedes-Benz E 1.9L Diesel · KY17 ACH

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz E remains roadworthy on paper, with the latest DVSA test on 12 April 2025 at 123,304 miles recording a pass and zero defects. The maintenance trend is stable, as every examination from January 2021 onward shows a clean result with no advisories or failures. Mileage sits at 123,304 against a nine-year lifespan, averaging near 13,700 miles yearly and marking the car as high-use for its age. The 20 January 2021 test logged 55,580 miles; by 21 March 2022 the odometer read 89,883, a rapid 34,303-mile surge in fourteen months. Later entries tighten to routine annual rises: 111,984 in March 2023, 114,138 in March 2024, and the final 123,304 in April 2025. The thin but unbroken test spacing shows the keeper met legal obligations without skip. No examiner cited worn suspension bushes, fractured coil springs, binding calipers, corroded structure, or elevated exhaust emissions at any stage. That flawless advisory sheet suggests the prior owner corrected incipient faults pre-test, reflecting disciplined upkeep. Still, high mileage hides latent stress. A buyer must physically check front lower arms, rear axle carrier for rust, and brake disc run-out before committing funds. Confirm matching service stamps with the recorded distances and inspect consumable tyres and wiper blades, items the MOT may pass despite near-limit condition.
