2017 Mercedes-Benz E 4.0L Petrol · W88 DAV

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a clear trend of improving maintenance in recent years. Following the most recent test in October 2025 at 72,874 miles, the car passed with no defects or advisories. This follows two consecutive clean records in 2023 and 2024, indicating that the current owner is proactively addressing mechanical and cosmetic requirements before they escalate into failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-maintained modern executive car, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 39,682 miles in May 2020 to over 72,000 miles by late 2025. There is no evidence of long periods of stationary time which often leads to dry rot or brake fluid degradation, and the intervals between tests suggest a regular usage cycle that is generally beneficial for the longevity of a Mercedes-Benz drivetrain. The history reveals a brief lapse in attention around August 2022 at 58,332 miles when the vehicle failed due to a structural failure in the nearside rear tyre and minor wear on the offside components. While these issues were rectified immediately for the subsequent pass, a buyer should still inspect the current set of tyres for uneven wear to ensure the alignment remains within specification. Since the last three tests show no structural or braking issues, the inspection focus should shift to verifying the condition of the suspension bushings and brake pads, which are common points of wear at this mileage.
