2013 Mercedes-Benz ML 3.0L Diesel · BE 5820

The most recent MOT on 16 December 2025 at 111,464 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle is presently roadworthy, and the maintenance record shows a shift from earlier recurring faults to a stable, defect‑free status. Over its 13‑year life the ML has accumulated 111,464 miles, averaging about 8,600 miles per year, yet the interval between the January 2023 test (78,728 miles) and the December 2024 test (103,911 miles) represents an increase of 25,183 miles in roughly 11 months, indicating a period of intensified use, and the subsequent 13‑month span added another 7,553 miles, suggesting continued active operation. A buyer should therefore examine the front lower suspension arms for play or compromised dust covers, verify the condition of the ball joints and suspension bushes, check headlamp aim and the integrity of the surrounding suspension components, and inspect the brake discs, pads and structural areas for corrosion or wear that may not have been recorded in the latest defect‑free test.
