2007 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · N22 LBB

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 22 May 2025 at 57 739 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance record. However the test is now overdue by roughly two months, so the car is technically out of compliance as of 28 July 2026. The absence of any advisories across both the 2024 and 2025 tests suggests the previous owner kept routine servicing consistent. Mileage analysis shows a low annual average of about 3 039 miles for a 19‑year‑old model, which points to light overall use. The jump from 47 197 miles in June 2024 to 57 739 miles in May 2025 represents a 10 542‑mile increase in just 11 months, a rate higher than the typical yearly accumulation. This recent surge may reflect a period of more intensive driving or storage conditions that accelerated wear on consumables. The MOT history is sparse, covering only two tests, but each entry is clean, confirming no major faults were logged. A prospective buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, examine the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and check tyre tread depth given the recent mileage spike. Look for signs of corrosion on the exhaust system and underbody, and assess structural integrity for rust around wheel arches and sill panels. Finally, ensure the overdue MOT is rectified before registration to avoid immediate legal issues.
