2013 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · LG63 ADO

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptional record of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 3 November 2025 at 96,954 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to September 2022, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance and a vehicle kept in prime mechanical condition. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for a 13 year old executive saloon. The distance covered between the September 2022 test at 63,507 miles and the November 2025 test at 96,954 miles shows a steady usage pattern. A slight anomaly appears in 2023, where the car passed two tests within three months, moving from 73,154 miles in August to 75,132 miles in November. This suggests a possible change of ownership or a pre-sale inspection, but it does not indicate any mechanical instability. The absence of any recorded advisories over the last five tests is rare for a vehicle of this age. The tester flagged no issues regarding brake disc wear, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions across several thousand miles of annual use. There is no evidence of structural corrosion or recurring mechanical failures in the DVSA data, which implies the previous owners prioritised upkeep over reactive repairs. A physical inspection should still focus on age-related wear that MOT tests occasionally overlook. Check the condition of the automatic transmission fluid and the state of the rubber seals and hoses, as these degrade regardless of mileage. While the record is clean, verifying the service history for oil changes and filter replacements will confirm if the mechanical health matches the flawless MOT trajectory.
