2015 Mercedes-Benz GLE 2.1L Diesel · KM65 NTY

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the most recent MOT pass on 11 August 2026 showing no recorded defects. The testing history indicates a stable mechanical trend, moving from a single advisory regarding tyre wear in August 2024 to a clean certificate in the two subsequent annual inspections. This progression suggests that previous minor wear items have been addressed, resulting in a current status where no immediate mechanical failures or structural concerns are documented in the official DVSA data. The recorded mileage of 125,337 miles over an eleven-year lifespan represents a typical usage pattern for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,394 miles per year. This level of annual accumulation suggests regular motorway or long-distance driving rather than short, infrequent trips or prolonged periods of inactivity. Mechanically, this consistent mileage profile implies that components such as the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems have been subjected to steady, predictable wear rather than the potential issues associated with extreme high-mileage usage or the degradation often seen in vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods. Prospective buyers should pay specific attention to the tyre condition, following the advisory from August 2024 which noted the nearside rear tyre was worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. While the 2025 and 2026 tests show no such issues, the previous edge wear could indicate a historical alignment issue or uneven suspension loading. During a test drive, it is essential to check for any pulling to one side under braking or during straight-line driving, and to inspect the current tread patterns across all four tyres to ensure they are wearing evenly across the contact patch. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, a thorough inspection of the suspension and steering components is advisable to ensure the stability noted in the recent clean MOTs remains consistent. Listen for any rhythmic knocking or clunking sounds when navigating uneven surfaces or speed bumps, which could signal wear in the suspension bushes or ball joints. Additionally, monitor the steering feel for any vibrations or heaviness that might suggest issues with the steering rack or wheel bearings, ensuring the vehicle maintains the straight-line tracking expected of a Mercedes-Benz GLE.
