2017 Mercedes-Benz E 1.9L Diesel · LC17 EYV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT on August 18, 2025 at 49,308 miles with no recorded defects. This reflects a trend of improvement following a mechanical failure in June 2023. While the car previously required attention to consumable components, the lack of advisories in the latest test suggests that the current owner has addressed identified issues and maintained the vehicle to a passing standard. At nine years old, the recorded mileage of 49,308 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage over the years, with 6,213 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 4,305 miles between 2023 and 2024. Low mileage generally indicates less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, though low-speed driving can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or corrosion if not managed. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and suspension geometry due to recurring faults. The June 2023 failure flagged both front brake discs as worn, and the 2024 advisory noted a nearside rear tyre worn on the edge. These patterns suggest potential uneven tyre wear or an alignment issue that warrants a professional check to prevent premature component failure. Additionally, the buyer should inspect tyre sidewalls for cuts or structural damage, as the history shows a previous cut reaching the cords on the offside front tyre.
