2014 MERCEDES-BENZ CITAN1.5L Diesel

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz Citan currently holds a valid roadworthy status following a passed MOT on 21 January 2026 at 99,781 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the record. The most recent test passed with no defects recorded, though it followed a failed attempt on the same day at identical mileage with no defects listed, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in January 2025 at 87,477 miles and February 2024 at 75,469 miles also passed cleanly, and a failed entry from 31 January 2024 at 75,469 miles again showed no recorded defects. The odometer shows roughly 8,315 miles covered per year against the vehicle's twelve-year life, a typical usage rate for this age of light commercial derivative. Mileage moved from 75,469 in early 2024 to 87,477 by January 2025, then to 99,781 by January 2026, equating to about 12,000 miles annually over the last two years, a moderate rise above the long-term average but not excessive. The DVSA history is sparse and clean, with no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or corrosion across any entry, which suggests either careful upkeep or tests conducted without detailed fault logging. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and the absence of advisory notes that normally accompany a twelve-year-old van. The twin 2024 and 2026 same-day fail-pass pairs with zero defects warrant confirmation that no suppressed mechanical issues such as binding calipers or worn tyres were present at test. Verify the brake system, steering joints, and suspension mounts in person, as MOT cleanliness at this mileage does not preclude consumable wear escaping the tester's record.
