2018 Mercedes-Benz E 3.0L Diesel · DP13 ACK

The vehicle is presently road‑worthy; the June 2026 MOT at 54,470 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend after earlier tyre‑related failures were addressed. Across eight years the car has accumulated 54,470 miles, averaging roughly 6,800 miles per year. Mileage rose from 16,991 miles in June 2021 to 23,537 miles a year later, then to 29,902, 37,062, 45,379 and finally 54,470 miles, showing a consistent, moderate increase without any unexplained gaps. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the tyre condition, especially the nearside front and rear tyres that have repeatedly approached the legal tread limit, and the offside front tyre that previously exhibited a cut. Verify that tread depth is uniform, sidewalls are free of cracks, and that any repaired cuts are sound. While the MOT record shows no suspension, brake or structural advisories, a visual inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and pads is prudent to confirm they have not suffered hidden wear. Finally, inspect the under‑carriage for any emerging corrosion, check the exhaust system for leaks, and ensure that the steering and braking feel are smooth and free of binding. Addressing these points will confirm that the car’s mechanical health aligns with its clean MOT history.
