Our Verdict

A strong recommendation for buyers seeki

Prioritise reviewing the service records regarding the January 2024 MOT failure, specifically the 'Engine MIL' malfunction. You should request evidence of the repair to ensure the fault was permanently resolved and not simply cleared. Given the very low annual mileage for a diesel engine, inquire about the typical trip lengths to ensure the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) has been regularly regenerated.

Negotiate based on the current state of the tyres. With advisories for worn tyres appearing in 2024, 2025, and 2026, there is a clear trend of tyres reaching their legal limit shortly before the MOT. Check if a fresh set has been fitted since the January 2026 test.

The 1950cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on longer journeys, though the low mileage of this specific car suggests it may not have been used for its primary purpose of long-distance cruising. Tax and insurance will fall within the expected brackets for a premium E-Class executive saloon.

Maintenance costs for Mercedes-Benz vehicles tend to be higher than average, particularly as the vehicle ages beyond five years. Budget for premium consumables and potential wear-and-tear items like brake pads, which are a common failure point for this model across the UK fleet.

Carefully inspect the tread depth and wear patterns on all four tyres. The MOT history shows a consistent issue with tyres being worn close to the legal limit (Nearside Front in 2024, Offside Front in 2025, and Offside Rear in 2026), which may indicate an alignment issue or a pattern of deferred maintenance.

Check the dashboard for any active warning lights and verify the functionality of the engine management system. Additionally, inspect the suspension arms and brake pads, as aggregate data for the E-Class identifies these as top reasons for MOT failure across 255,038 analysed vehicles.

This black 2018 Mercedes-Benz E diesel has covered 37,309 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average. Its MOT history is generally positive, although it shows a recurring pattern of tyre wear and a single failure in 2024. The vehicle's low usage suggests it has not been subjected to the typical high-mileage wear associated with this model.

The E-Class maintains a respectable average MOT pass rate of 83.8%, with tyres, suspension arms, and brake pads being the most frequent points of failure.
