2015 Mercedes-Benz GLE 2.1L Diesel · OS05 BEE

The vehicle maintains a clean record of roadworthiness, with the most recent test on 27 August 2025 at 46,216 miles resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. This outcome continues a trend of consistent compliance, as the vehicle has successfully cleared every annual inspection since 2023 without a single advisory notice. The technical status appears stable, suggesting the car has been subjected to regular maintenance and has not suffered from chronic mechanical or structural failures during its recent history. At approximately 4,200 miles per year, the total mileage of 46,216 over an eleven-year lifespan is notably low. The progression is linear and predictable, with the vehicle covering roughly 7,800 miles between the August 2023 and August 2024 tests, and a similar increment leading into the 2025 inspection. This pattern indicates steady, light usage rather than prolonged periods of inactivity, which often lead to seized calipers or perished rubber components. The lack of mileage spikes suggests the vehicle has likely been used for short, regular journeys rather than high-speed motorway commuting. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, the lack of advisory notes requires a cautious approach during a physical inspection. A clean test record does not account for components that fall outside the scope of the MOT, such as the condition of the automatic transmission fluid, engine oil degradation, or the health of complex electronic control units common in this model. Prospective buyers should specifically check for signs of oil leaks around the engine block and transmission housing, as these are frequently cleaned off prior to testing. Inspect the suspension air bellows for any audible hissing or uneven ride height, as these systems are prone to wear on vehicles of this age regardless of low mileage. Verify that all electrical features, including the infotainment and driver assistance systems, operate as intended, as these are often excluded from standard roadworthiness assessments.
