2013 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · AR03 JAY

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz E presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 March 2026 at 100,071 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. Annual mileage has averaged close to 7,700 miles, which sits within typical bounds for a thirteen-year-old executive saloon. The records show no gaps or sudden accumulation: the car covered 87,811 miles by April 2022, then 90,838 by March 2023, 95,285 by March 2024, 98,201 by March 2025, and 100,071 by March 2026. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, with every entry listing zero advisories across suspension, brakes, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection before purchase. Clean MOT sheets do not rule out worn suspension bushes, tired coil springs, or early corrosion hidden from the annual test. At 100,071 miles the brake discs, calipers, and tyres are consumable items nearing replacement regardless of the pass record. Given the lack of recorded advisories, previous owners appear to have kept basic upkeep current. The absence of recurring defects suggests no worsening mechanical pattern, though in-person checks on underbody rust and drivetrain condition remain prudent on a car of this age.
