1980 MERCEDES-BENZ E2.3L Petrol

The 2025‑06‑06 MOT at 99,664 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness and a stable maintenance record; the earlier 2025‑05‑27 test also showed no faults, indicating no worsening trend. At roughly 2,167 miles per year, the mileage is well below the typical wear rate for a 46‑year‑old vehicle, suggesting periods of limited use or extended storage; the 20‑mile gap between the two tests reflects minimal recent driving. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake calipers and discs for binding or corrosion, verify structural integrity for rust especially around the chassis and wheel arches, and check the exhaust system and emissions for any signs of deterioration that may not have appeared in the MOT.
