2020 Mercedes-Benz E 2.9L Diesel · EO70 WDP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test in October 2025 at 33,952 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stabilizing pattern after a significant mechanical failure in late 2024. While the 2023 test returned a clean sheet, subsequent records indicate that the vehicle required specific attention to its running gear, which was addressed to pass the most recent inspection. At six years old with 33,952 miles, this Mercedes-Benz has covered significantly less distance than the average, 5,600 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the records, showing a gap of 6,767 miles between September 2023 and September 2024. However, low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from degradation of rubber components and brake systems if stationary for long periods. The 2024 failure suggests the car may have been subjected to specific impact events rather than high mileage-related wear. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the wheels, as the 2024 failure for fractured inner rims on both the nearside and offside front indicates a history of hard impacts or severe pothing. These fractures compromise the structural integrity of the wheel assembly and should be verified to ensure the replacements are genuine and free of hairline cracks. The October 2025 advisory for thin front brake pads confirms that the braking system is reaching the end of its service interval, necessitating an immediate check of the disc condition for scoring or uneven wear.
