2017 Mercedes-Benz E 1.9L Diesel · KV67 AMX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent testing history. The most recent inspection conducted in September 2025 at 111,984 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety and emissions standards. While a single failure occurred in September 2023 at 78,765 miles, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the identified issue was minor and rectified promptly without indicating chronic mechanical neglect. The mileage reflects consistent high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 12,400 miles per year over the nine-year period. A significant jump in usage is noted between August 2022 at 61,108 miles and September 2024 at 88,921 miles, covering over 27,000 miles in two years. The rate has accelerated further, with 23,000 miles covered in the last year alone. This pattern typically suggests frequent motorway driving, which often results in less wear on suspension and clutch compared to short city trips. Given the high mileage age of the vehicle, a physical inspection should focus on components most susceptible to high-frequency stress. While the MOT record is clean of structural corrosion, the buyer must verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber or fatigue. The brake discs should also be checked for uneven wear or thinness, as the high mileage puts significant demand on the braking system. Checking for fluid leaks around the engine and gearbox is essential to ensure the drivetrain remains as robust as the history suggests.
