2010 Mercedes-Benz E 3.0L Diesel · JB 267

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, demonstrating a consistent maintenance history over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 8 July 2025 at 100,738 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This streak of clean results dating back to 2021 indicates that the mechanical and structural components have been maintained to a standard that avoids failure during regulatory testing. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 6,300 miles per annum. Between the July 2021 test at 82,048 miles and the 2025 test at 100,738 miles, the car covered 18,690 miles, showing steady, low-impact usage. This low annual mileage typically reduces the strain on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can occasionally lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts if the vehicle remains stationary for extended periods. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a buyer should perform a physical inspection focused on common age-related issues for an older Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Particular attention should be paid to the structural integrity of the chassis and subframes for corrosion, as the MOT only flags structural rust once it becomes a safety risk. Additionally, inspect the way bushes and coil springs for wear, and check the braking system for binding calipers or uneven pad wear that might not trigger a failure during a standard test.
