2016 Mercedes-Benz E 1.9L Diesel · ND66 PVE

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status following a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 18 December 2025 at 48,475 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car met all safety and emissions standards. While the history shows instances of failure in late 2023 and 2024, these issues were rectified prior to the subsequent passes, suggesting the owner is proactive in addressing faults once they are identified. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old Mercedes-Benz E Class, with 48,475 miles recorded representing an average of approximately 4,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent annual testing, with tests occurring in December over several consecutive years, which suggests a regular inspection schedule. This low-usage profile typically implies less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or brake surface corrosion due to long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific components that caused the failures in December 2023 and December 2024, although the provided record does not list the specific mechanical reasons for those failures. Given the low mileage, it is vital to check the condition of the brake discs for pitting or rust, as these components age faster than they wear down. Examine the suspension bushes and bushings for cracking or dry rot, as low-mile vehicles often suffer from age-related material fatigue regardless of the distance on the odometer.
