AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz E passed its most recent MOT test on 2025-10-28 at 103,831 miles with a worn front tyre noted as the only defect. This test result suggests a stable maintenance trend, with no indication of worsening issues. However, the presence of this defect warrants attention to ensure the tyre is replaced before it reaches the minimum tread depth. The recorded mileage of 103,831 miles over approximately 9 years equates to an annual mileage of around 11,537 miles, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of annual tests, with no significant gaps in the data. However, there is a notable increase in mileage between 2019 and 2020, with 10,804 miles accumulated in just one year, which may indicate a period of increased use or a change in driving habits. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's tyres, brakes, and registration plates in person, given the history of tyre-related defects, including worn front and rear tyres, and the presence of worn rear brake pads in 2024. The malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system in 2024 also warrants investigation. Furthermore, the vehicle's registration plates have been non-compliant on multiple occasions, suggesting a possible issue with the vehicle's identification or a lapse in maintenance. It is essential to verify the current condition of these components to ensure the vehicle's roadworthiness.
