2020 Mercedes-Benz E 2.0L Hybrid electric · AL61 BLE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the most recent inspection indicates a shift toward reactive maintenance habits. While the car passed its MOT on 18 May 2026 at 43,798 miles, it failed just one mile prior due to a critical failure of the offside front tyre and thin front brake pads. This suggests that the current owner is only addressing mechanical issues once they reach a legal failure threshold rather than performing preventative servicing. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a low-use executive vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per annum. The record shows steady progression from 16,228 miles in August 2023 to 43,798 miles in May 2026. The gap of 23,773 miles between the 2024 and 2026 tests shows a period of regular usage, though the lack of advisories in the 2024 and 2025 tests indicates that the structural and primary mechanical components were in good condition during those intervals. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front braking system to ensure the thin pads have not scored the rotors. The failure on the offside front tyre for exposed cords is a serious safety concern that implies impact damage or severe wear; therefore, the remaining tyres should be checked for uneven degradation or deformation. You should also verify the suspension bushings and rubber components, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from perish-related cracking if they have sat for long periods between the recorded tests.
