2018 Mercedes-Benz E 1.9L Diesel · R100 BSH

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz E presents a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean pass recorded at the most recent test on 10 December 2025 at 115,089 miles. No defects or advisories appear across the four subsequent annual examinations from 2022 to 2025. The maintenance history shows consistent compliance with statutory testing and no escalating mechanical concerns. Mileage stands at 115,089 against an eight-year lifespan, equating to roughly 14,386 miles per year and placing this saloon above typical private-use averages for its class. The record charts steady annual accumulation: 72,449 miles on 29 November 2022, 85,397 by 20 December 2023, 102,372 on 5 December 2024, and 115,089 at the final test. A duplicate 29 November 2022 entry shows a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage, indicating the tester initially rejected the vehicle before a corrective action cleared it with no listed defect, a clerical or minor pre-check anomaly rather than a substantive fault. Given the absence of recorded advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion, the DVSA data alone implies disciplined upkeep by prior keepers. The high mileage does, however, accelerate wear on consumable items and drivetrain components not always visible in a pass result. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the front suspension arms, rear subframe for corrosion, and brake caliper operation given the 115,000-mile burden. Verify service history covers gearbox fluid and differential intervals. The clean MOT trail reduces risk but does not substitute for physical appraisal of bush condition and underbody integrity.
