2015 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · 100 SCX

As a 2143cc diesel, this E-Class is designed for efficient long-distance cruising, though real-world fuel economy will depend on driving style. Being a 2015 model, buyers should be aware of potential ULEZ or Clean Air Zone charges depending on the specific Euro emissions rating, though most diesel E-Classes from this era meet recent standards.

Maintenance costs for Mercedes-Benz vehicles typically sit in the mid-to-high bracket. While the MOT history shows no recent failures, you should budget for consumables like brake pads and tyres, which are noted as top failure reasons for this model aggregate. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, and maintenance, sit in the mid-range for an executive saloon.

While this specific vehicle has a defect-free MOT history, the aggregate data for this model highlights tyres, suspension arms, and brake pads as the most frequent MOT failure reasons. You should physically inspect the tyre tread depth and look for any sidewall damage, and check the suspension for any knocks or excessive movement when the car is jacked up.

Additionally, inspect the brake pads and discs for thickness and scoring. Since the vehicle has covered approximately 52,009 miles, it is worth checking if any major service items, such as the timing belt or ancillary belts, are due based on age rather than just mileage.
