2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 SPT CDI Bluecy 265 A 3.0L Gas bi-fuel · SKZ 70

The current roadworthiness status of this Mercedes-Benz E350 is excellent, reflecting a highly stable maintenance trend. The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 11 June 2025 at 103,011 miles with no defects recorded, marking the third consecutive clean pass since the 2022 failure. This consistent lack of advisories over the past three years suggests that the previous owner has maintained the vehicle to a high standard, addressing potential issues before they escalated into formal test failures. The vehicle has covered 103,011 miles over fifteen years, averaging approximately 6,867 miles annually. This usage pattern is consistent and suggests regular, moderate operation rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive motorway commuting. The gap between the 2021 test at 69,179 miles and the 2022 test at 80,773 miles shows a period of higher usage, while the subsequent intervals remain steady. A clean record at this age indicates that the drivetrain and chassis have not suffered from the neglect often associated with high-mileage examples. Despite the clean test history, a physical inspection remains essential for this specific model. You should prioritize checking the air suspension system, as these components are prone to age-related leaks that do not always trigger an immediate MOT failure. Inspect the underside for any signs of corrosion on the subframes and fuel lines, as the MOT test is a visual check that may miss early-stage oxidation. Verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as the lack of advisories suggests these consumables have been replaced recently, but their actual thickness and surface condition should be confirmed to ensure they meet your expectations for future maintenance costs.
