2017 Mercedes-Benz E 3.0L Diesel · JP09 LES

The vehicle presents an exemplary roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on 4 September 2025 at 35,770 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable trend of mechanical integrity over the last five years. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and avoids the common mechanical failures or structural degradation often seen in older executive cars. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. Between the 2021 test at 17,245 miles and the November 2022 test at 21,838 miles, the car covered only 4,593 miles, indicating very infrequent annual use. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and brake pads, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to flat-spotted tyres or perished rubber components due to age-related de-gradation rather than mechanical friction. Because the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-use conditions. Check the sidewalls, suspension bushes, and coolant lines for cracking or dry rot, which frequently occurs on vehicles that sit for extended periods. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting if the car has not been used regularly, as low-speed driving can sometimes fail to clear surface rust effectively. Overall, the data indicates a well-preserved example with minimal mechanical stress.
