2008 Mercedes-Benz E 3.0L Diesel · OY58 ACV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, as the January 21, 2025 MOT at 167,808 miles was passed with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend despite earlier alternating pass and fail outcomes. The recorded mileage of 167,808 equates to roughly 9,323 miles per year over its 18‑year age, which is typical for a vehicle of this class. Mileage rose from 156,062 miles on January 25, 2024 to 167,808 miles on January 21, 2025, an increase of 11,746 miles in twelve months, and earlier intervals show similarly steady accumulation without prolonged stationary periods. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake discs and calipers for binding or excessive wear, assess structural rust in wheel arches and sills, verify exhaust condition and emissions, and check tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition, as these components are the most likely to exhibit issues at this mileage. Although the MOT history lists no recorded defects, the high mileage suggests that consumable items such as tyres, brake pads and suspension components may be approaching the end of their service life, making a physical inspection essential to confirm the vehicle’s true roadworthiness.
