Our Verdict

This is a well-maintained 2019 Mercedes-Benz E-Class with a clean MOT record and sensible mileage, making it a confident used purchase. Budget for a minor windscreen check but otherwise this grey petrol saloon looks like a solid buy.

Ask the seller for full service history to confirm the 3.0-litre petrol engine has been maintained to Mercedes-Benz schedules, as no aggregate reliability data is available for this model. Use the clean MOT history as leverage but still negotiate on price if the windscreen chip from the 2023 MOT (3.2 (a) (i)) remains unrepaired. Given the car is a 2019 registered example, check the V5C matches JA51AHM and confirm the grey colour and 2,999cc engine are as described before purchase.

As a 2,999cc petrol engine, expect higher fuel consumption than smaller models, though exact MPG is not provided in the data; road tax will reflect the larger displacement and post-April 2017 flat-rate structure. Insurance group is likely high for a Mercedes E-Class with a 3.0 petrol, so obtain a quote before buying. Estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance and routine maintenance is approximately £1,400-£1,800 given the engine size and premium brand.

Inspect the front windscreen for the damage noted in the 13 July 2023 MOT (3.2 (a) (i)) to ensure it has not worsened or now affects the driver's view. Check the 3.0-litre petrol engine for smooth cold starts and no warning lights, and verify brake and tyre condition despite no defects being recorded in the last two MOTs. Confirm the grey paintwork and overall body condition match a car with four consecutive passes and no accident-related advisories in the history.

The vehicle has passed every MOT from 2022 to 2025 with no failures and only a minor windscreen note in 2023 that did not cause a fail. Mileage has risen steadily from 45,898 in July 2022 to 79,348 in April 2025, which is reasonable for a six-year-old executive car. As a 3.0-litre petrol Mercedes E-Class first registered in July 2019, it offers a desirable engine and spec for the UK market.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Mercedes-Benz E model, so condition must be judged on this vehicle's own history.
