2017 Mercedes-Benz E 220 D SE Premium Auto 1.9L Diesel · LS17 TEY

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 2 September 2025 at 57,052 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This continues a trend of perfect passes over the last five years, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable tolerance parameters without triggering failures during the testing process. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,339 miles annually. Between August 2021 at 32,246 miles and August 2024 at 48,557 miles, the car covered 16,311 miles, showing a steady usage profile. The recent interval of 8,495 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests maintains this moderate pace. Such low-intensity usage typically results in less strain on the drivetrain, gearbox, and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage counterparts. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake calipers, or corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on immediate consumable items that are not covered by the MOT test. Given the low mileage, the buyer should check for age-related perish on tyres and rubber components, as these can degrade over time regardless of distance driven. Checking the condition of the brake discs and fluid levels is also prudent, as the MOT does not measure pad surface thickness or fluid degradation.
