2015 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · PK65 GPY

The overall roadworthiness status of this E-Class is excellent, demonstrating a completely stable and well-maintained trend. The most recent test on 4 November 2025 at 28,026 miles passed with zero defects or advisories. This flawless record extends back to October 2021, indicating a vehicle that has required no mechanical or structural remedial work throughout its recent life. Such a clean MOT history implies meticulous preventative care and a lack of the recurring faults that often plague older executive saloons. The mileage pattern reveals exceptionally light use, averaging just 2,548 miles per year. Between the October 2021 test at 24,938 miles and the November 2025 test at 28,026 miles, the car covered a mere 3,088 miles over four years. Annual increments were minimal, peaking at just 1,273 miles between 2024 and 2025. Notably, the odometer has not moved since the last MOT eight months ago. This severe underutilisation suggests prolonged periods of standing, which introduces a distinct set of preservation concerns distinct from high-mileage wear. Despite the pristine MOT record, a buyer must inspect the vehicle specifically for the ailments caused by sitting idle. Low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from perished suspension bushes and deteriorated rubber seals that a standard MOT might not immediately flag unless severely split. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion caused by light braking, which can lead to binding calipers and uneven pad deposition. Check the condition of the tyres, as the sidewalls may display micro-cracking from age and lack of use rather than tread wear. Inspect the exhaust system for internal condensation corrosion and verify the structural integrity of the underbody, as standing vehicles can trap moisture in hidden crevices. Fluid degradation is another silent risk, so confirming recent changes of brake fluid and coolant remains essential.
