2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · OU14 AUJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. The most recent inspection conducted on 25 June 2025 at 81,971 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. This followed a curious failure just eight days prior at 81,969 miles, though the record shows no specific faults for that failure, suggesting a potential administrative error or a minor presentation issue that was rectified immediately before the retest. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent with the vehicle's twelve-year age, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and June 2025, the vehicle covered 16,497 miles, indicating a steady rate of use rather than heavy commercial cycles or long periods of neglect. This low annual mileage generally implies less strain on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage fleet vans. The lack of advisories across the last four years suggests that the previous owners maintained the vehicle proactively before issues became test failures. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas common to the Mercedes Sprinter of this era. Despite the low mileage, the chassis and structural integrity should be checked for surface corrosion, particularly around the sills and wheel arches where moisture often collects. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as rubber components can perish over time regardless of the distance driven. Additionally, checking the brake discs for pitting or binding calipers will ensure the low-frequency use has not led to seizing in the braking system.
