2022 Mercedes-Benz E 300 AMG Line Premium Mhev A 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · M20 BAU

The vehicle failed its most recent MOT on 1 May 2026 at 27,728 miles, indicating it is currently not roadworthy; the previous pass in May 2025 shows a decline in condition, suggesting a worsening trend. The 2025 test recorded 17,883 miles, while the 2026 test added 9,845 miles in roughly eleven months, far exceeding the average annual mileage for a four‑year‑old car and pointing to intensive use or long periods of standing followed by high‑intensity driving. The recurring rear prop shaft joint wear, tyre cuts reaching the ply, and near‑legal tread wear demand close examination of the rear drivetrain joint, tyre sidewalls and tread depth, as well as the condition of the rear brakes and suspension bushes; any structural rust or corrosion on the chassis should also be verified. The MOT also flagged a near‑side front nail in the tyre and a worn rear prop shaft joint, which together indicate potential exposure to road debris and possible neglect of routine tyre maintenance; a buyer should therefore inspect the chassis for rust, especially around the wheel arches and underbody, and verify that the rear prop shaft joint is not excessively worn beyond the advisory threshold.
