2022 Mercedes-Benz S 350 L AMG LN Prem + Exec D A 2.9L Diesel · KP71 POV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the two most recent MOT examinations. The latest test conducted on 12 December 2025 at 134,865 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean result from December 2024, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard despite the heavy usage placed on its components. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 33,700 miles per year. Between the 23 December 2024 test and the 12 December 2025 test, the car covered 36,272 miles in under a year. This rapid rate indicates consistent long-distance motorway use, which typically results in less wear from stop-and-go traffic but accelerates the degradation of the drivetrain, air suspension, and braking components. Given the high mileage and clean MOT history, a buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of high-wear items that are specific to the S-Class. Particular attention should be paid to the air suspension system for signs of leaking or sagging, as the high mileage often stresses the damping units. The braking system, including disc thickness and caliper condition, requires a check for premature wear given the significant distance covered annually. A thorough review of the lower suspension bushes and control arms is necessary to ensure the high mileage has not led to excessive lateral play. While the MOT records show no current failures, the sheer volume of miles means that consumable components and mechanical seals may be nearing the end of their service life. Verifying the service history against these mileage figures is essential to ensure the engine and gearbox have received timely lubrication.
