Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 15 years old and 233,354 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
- You need servicing to fit a tight budget: Spanner estimates higher maintenance costs for this type. Get quotes for the exact engine and gearbox before committing.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
This is the W212-era E‑Class (2009–2016) in diesel/automatic form, commonly fitted with Mercedes' 4-cylinder OM651 diesels and a 7‑speed automatic (7G‑Tronic). Diesel-specific items — DPF, EGR and turbo — are worth watching, and some higher‑spec cars have Airmatic air suspension which can be expensive to repair. Get confirmation of gearbox service (fluid/filter) and look for signs of city-only use which accelerates DPF/EGR problems.
- DPF condition — ask about forced regenerations and watch for persistent warning lights or reduced power (short-trip urban use clogs DPF)
- Automatic gearbox behaviour and service history — check for smooth shifts, no harsh/sluggish engagement and evidence of fluid/filter changes
- EGR and turbo health — look for black smoke, loss of power or loud turbo noises which indicate carbon build-up or turbo wear
- If fitted, check Airmatic air suspension for sagging, long pump run time or compressor noise (air springs and compressors are costly)
- Inspect underside/rear subframe and trailing-arm areas for corrosion and check rear boot/tailgate lower edge for rust
