2019 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 2.9L Diesel · MAL 10K

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in July 2025 with 77,729 miles and no recorded defects. However, the maintenance trend shows a reactive rather than proactive approach. While the most recent result is clean, the preceding tests in 2024 and 2025 indicate that the previous owner only addressed mechanical issues once they reached a failure point or a significant advisory threshold. At 77,729 miles over seven years, the S-Class averages approximately 11,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a luxury executive saloon. The record shows consistent use, with a 10,000-mile interval between January 2024 and July 2024, and another 8,200 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components associated with long periods of standing. A buyer must pay close attention to the braking system due to recurring failures. The July 2024 failure and January 2025 test flagged thin brake pads and worn/lipped discs across multiple axles. While these were likely replaced before the July 2025 pass, a physical inspection is required to verify the current pad thickness and disc condition to ensure high-quality components were fitted. The history of tyre damage and perishing in 2024 and 2025 also suggests that tyres should be thoroughly checked for sidewall damage or uneven wear, as the previous owner frequently overlooked these consumable issues.
