2011 Mercedes-Benz E 3.0L Diesel · 66 GXJ

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz E presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 25 September 2025 at 152,210 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle shows no advisories or defects in any test, and the most recent failure on 23 September 2025 at 152,157 miles carried no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. A near-identical failure on 24 September 2024 at 146,026 miles with no defects further supports this pattern of non-mechanical test rejections. Annual mileage averages 10,147 against the vehicle's fifteen-year life, which is typical for the age. The records show consistent yearly use: 139,657 miles in September 2023, rising to 146,027 by September 2024 and 152,210 by September 2025, a steady accumulation of roughly 6,000 to 6,500 miles per year. No gaps or sudden surges in distance travelled appear in the data, and the sparse but clean record gives little cause for concern on consumable wear from overuse. The repeated zero-defect failures suggest the previous owner presented the car without addressing minor paperwork or identification matters rather than neglecting servicing, though the absence of advisories means worn suspension bushes, brake disc lip, or corrosion around structural mountings were not flagged at the tested dates. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the front coil springs, rear subframe for rust, and caliper operation given the car's age and 152,000-mile count. Given the two consecutive clean passes following the unexplained failures, the vehicle's mechanical history implies competent upkeep. Verify the reason for the 2024 and 2025 test rejects with the seller, and confirm the odometer reading matches the DVSA log before purchase.
