2013 Mercedes-Benz E220 AMG Sport CDI Auto 2.1L Heavy oil · RIG 9758

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in April 2025 at 155,159 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This suggests a proactive approach to maintenance where the previous owner likely addressed minor wear items before they could result in test failures. The mileage reflects consistent use typical for a thirteen-year-old diesel saloon, averaging approximately 12,000 miles per annum. There is a notable increase in usage between the 2022 test at 82,764 miles and the 2021 test at 122,319 miles, representing nearly 40,000 miles covered in under a year. However, the subsequent jump of 64,493 miles between March 2024 and April 2025 indicates a high-intensity driving period that places significant demand on the drivetrain and suspension components. Because the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical faults or structural corrosion issues, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear areas typical of high-mileage Mercedes models. You must scrutinise the condition of the control arm bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of tearing or leaking, as the high mileage accelerates rubber degradation. Additionally, inspect the braking system for signs of binding calipers or thin discs, as the MOT test does not measure the remaining life of these components unless a failure is present.
