2021 Mercedes-Benz E 400 AMG LN NGT ED Prm+d 4M A 2.9L Diesel · 5555 AL

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness record with a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 6 October 2025 at 21,607 miles passed with zero defects, a notable improvement from the previous test on 15 October 2024 at 15,922 miles, where the tester flagged an Offside Rear nail in the tyre. That single advisory was a minor consumable issue rather than a mechanical or structural concern, and its absence from the latest test indicates the keeper addressed it promptly. No recurring faults appear in the record, suggesting consistent basic upkeep. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle. Between October 2024 and October 2025, the car covered just 5,685 miles, averaging roughly 110 miles per week. Over its full life, the total of 21,607 miles equates to approximately 4,321 miles per year, well below the UK average of around 7,000 to 8,000 miles annually. This pattern points to short-journey or occasional use rather than sustained motorway commuting. Low mileage can preserve drivetrain and brake components, but it also raises the possibility of extended periods standing still, which can cause flat-spotting on tyres, moisture accumulation in the exhaust and brake fluid, and surface corrosion on brake discs. The MOT record is sparse, with only two tests logged, both of which passed. The sole advisory, a nail in the offside rear tyre, was a straightforward puncture repair and carries no implication of neglect or underlying wheel or suspension damage. No structural corrosion, exhaust emissions failures, suspension defects, or braking system faults have ever been recorded. The cleanliness of the history is reassuring, though the limited number of tests means there is a narrow data window from which to draw long-term conclusions. A buyer conducting an in-person inspection should focus on areas the MOT record cannot fully verify given its brevity. Check the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking, as the rubber dates to 2021 and may be approaching replacement regardless of tread depth. Inspect the underside for surface corrosion on brake lines, subframes, and suspension mounting points, particularly if the vehicle has sat unused for extended periods. Test the brake pedal for sponginess that could indicate moisture-laden fluid from infrequent use. The E 400 AMG Line with 4Matic four-wheel drive places additional drivetrain demands, so listen for clunks or vibrations during a road test that could hint at worn differential mounts or driveshaft joints not yet severe enough to trigger an MOT failure.
