2010 Mercedes-Benz E 3.0L Diesel · PX10 PPO

The vehicle presents a stable level of roadworthiness with a clean record over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in June 2025 at 118,113 miles resulted in no defects recorded, following a period of consecutive passes. While a single failure occurred in early June 2023 at 108,094 miles, the immediate pass just six days later indicates that the owner addressed the necessary repairs promptly to maintain compliance. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and June 2025, the car covered 15,809 miles, showing a steady usage profile rather than long periods of neglect or rapid accumulation. This regular operation generally suggests that mechanical components such as seals and cooling systems have remained active, reducing the risk of dry degradation often seen in long-standing vehicles. Despite the clean history in recent MOT tests, a physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the sixteen-year-old Mercedes-Benz. At 118,000 miles, examine the rate of corrosion on the subframes, suspension mounting points, and exhaust system, as these are common areas of concern on this chassis. The buyer should also check for wear on the rubber bushings and control arms, which often degrade over time regardless of mileage, before they reach a point of critical failure.
