2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE 2.1L Diesel · EY66 ADU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass in April 2026 at 90,315 miles where no defects were recorded. This follows a consistent history of clean passes over the last six years, with only one minor exception. The maintenance trend suggests the vehicle has been kept to a functional standard without recurring mechanical or structural failures during the testing process. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between the May 2020 test at 27,973 miles and the April 2026 test at 90,315 miles, the GLE covered over 62,000 miles, indicating a steady and predictable usage pattern. There are no significant gaps in the records that would suggest the vehicle sat stationary for long periods, which helps mitigate the risk of rubber component degradation or seized calipers in the braking system. A buyer should pay specific attention to the advisory noted during the April 2025 test at 80,674 miles, where both nearside and offside front tyres were flagged for being close to the legal limit and worn edges. This specific wear pattern often indicates an alignment issue or premature suspension bushing wear. Given the age and mileage of the GLE, a physical inspection of the front suspension arms and shock absorbers is necessary to ensure the uneven tyre wear has not caused deeper mechanical misalignment. While the MOT record shows no structural corrosion or brake failures, checking the undercarriage for rust and verifying the brake fluid condition remains a standard requirement for a vehicle of this class.
