2013 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · LF63 DFD

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz E presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 December 2025 at 37,105 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 19 December 2024 at 30,464 miles. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across its documented history, indicating consistent compliance with MOT standards. Recorded mileage sits at 37,105 against an age of roughly thirteen years, equating to about 2,854 miles per year. The history shows a gap between April 2019 and August 2021 where no test appears, then a jump from 26,650 to 32,156 miles by the later date. Annual use stayed low thereafter, with only 6,641 miles added across the 2024 and 2025 tests. Such low totals suggest extended standing periods, which can allow corrosion or perished rubber components despite clean MOT outcomes. The April 2019 entry lists both a fail and a pass on the same day at 26,650 miles, with no defects recorded against either result. This points to an administrative or procedural retry rather than a genuine mechanical fault. No suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural integrity issues were flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection focused on underbody corrosion, brake caliper binding from disuse, and degradation of tyres or wiper blades through age rather than wear. The clean record offers reassurance, but standing time at this mileage demands verification of fluid condition and flexible components not captured by MOT testing.
