2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE 2.1L Diesel · NG 3122

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with the latest October 2025 MOT at 88,910 miles passing despite tyres flagged as worn close to the legal limit on both front inner edges. Earlier tests show a consistent pattern of brake disc wear and thin pads, yet no repeat failures after the 2019 rear‑pad failure, indicating a stable maintenance trend focused on consumable replacement rather than escalating mechanical defects. Mileage has risen from 55,706 miles in September 2019 to 88,910 miles in October 2025, averaging roughly 8,900 miles per year – a typical usage rate for a ten‑year‑old executive SUV. The interval between the September 2024 and October 2025 tests records an increase of 7,930 miles, matching the annual average and revealing no abnormal spikes or prolonged idle periods. A prospective buyer should verify the front tyre condition in person, confirming that tread depth exceeds the legal minimum and that the inner‑edge wear does not mask an alignment issue. Inspect the brake discs for scoring beyond the MOT notes and assess pad thickness, especially on the rear set, to ensure the wear pattern has not progressed. A visual check of suspension bushes, coil springs, and any signs of corrosion on the chassis will corroborate the absence of structural concerns noted in the records. A short test‑drive focusing on braking response and ride quality will reveal any latent issues not captured by the MOT.
