2017 Mercedes-Benz E 1.9L Diesel · 400 HH

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class demonstrates a highly stable and exemplary maintenance trend, passing every recorded MOT without a single defect. The most recent examination on 10 November 2025 at 31,292 miles returned a completely clean bill of health, recording zero advisories or failures. This consistent pattern of passing without intervention suggests meticulous upkeep and a lack of recurring mechanical or structural issues throughout its lifespan. The mileage accumulation aligns with exceptionally light use, averaging roughly 3,477 miles per year. Between the 2024 test at 29,120 miles and the 2025 test at 31,292 miles, the car covered just 2,172 miles. Prior annual increments show a similar trajectory, with 1,837 miles added between November 2023 and November 2024. The record is entirely clean, showing no anomalies or sudden spikes in usage that might indicate long periods of neglect followed by intense use. Despite the flawless MOT record, the extremely low mileage warrants a focused physical inspection for issues typical of vehicles standing idle for extended periods. Buyers should closely examine the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking and flat-spotting, as the rubber often perishes long before the tread wears out. Suspension bushes and brake calipers can deteriorate from lack of use, so checking for binding brakes and degraded rubber mountings remains essential. Corrosion on brake discs and exhaust components frequently plagues short-trip vehicles that never reach optimal operating temperatures. Inspect the brake disc faces for surface rust and check the underside for any signs of structural corrosion, ensuring the low mileage has not masked the typical decay associated with a car standing still.
