2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE 2.1L Diesel · RE11 JOK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent MOT test in October 2025 at 82,776 miles. This latest inspection passed with no recorded defects, indicating that previous mechanical and safety-related concerns have been addressed. This marks an improvement from the September 2024 test at 72,370 miles, where the tester flagged both nearside and offside front tyres as being worn near the legal limit or showing edge wear. The resolution of these issues suggests the current owner is proactive regarding basic consumable maintenance after the advisory was issued. At 82,776 miles, the ten-year-old GLE has averaged approximately 8,278 miles per year. This figure aligns with typical usage patterns for a luxury SUV of this age, avoiding excessive premature wear on heavy-duty components like the air suspension system or drivetrain. The mileage history shows consistent annual testing, with intervals of roughly 10,000 to 15,000 miles between tests from 2022 and 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which can often lead to seal degradation and fluid breakdown. The failure in November 2022 at 51,123 miles was strictly limited to tyre damage and wear, specifically cuts reaching the cords on the nearside front and offside rear tyres. Since that failure, no structural corrosion, brake binding issues, or exhaust system failures have appeared on the record. A buyer should still focus on the physical condition of the suspension bushes and bushings during a physical inspection, as these are common points of failure at this mileage, but the MOT data does not indicate a trend of mechanical neglect or escalating structural decay.
