2010 MERCEDES-BENZ E3.0L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT pass issued on 16 July 2025 at 67,201 miles, with no defects recorded. This follows a failed test the previous day at 67,195 miles, also cleared without noted faults. The most recent history shows a stable maintenance pattern, with the car passing its latest inspection cleanly after an initial failure resolved within 24 hours. At approximately 16 years old, the recorded mileage of 67,201 is exceptionally low, averaging around 4,200 miles per year. The mileage increase between the July 2025 tests was minimal, rising only six miles, suggesting either very light use or periods of inactivity. The gap between the May 2023 test at 47,222 miles and the June 2024 test at 60,697 miles represents a more substantial rise of roughly 13,475 miles over 13 months, indicating occasional use rather than continuous high-mileage driving. No rapid accumulation or concerning gaps appear in the record. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should focus on components that may deteriorate from age and low usage rather than wear from mileage. Inspect the condition of the tyres for cracking or perishing, particularly if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Check the brake system for stiffness or binding, as low-use vehicles can suffer from seized calipers or degraded brake fluid. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of deterioration, and verify that the exhaust system and undercarriage show no signs of corrosion despite the generally favourable history.
