MERCEDES-BENZ ML2014 · 3.0L Diesel

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz ML presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 20 March 2026 at 115,458 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Every annual examination from 2022 through 2026 returned a pass with no advisories. This consistent record indicates the previous keeper addressed any required items before each test and the vehicle has not exhibited worsening mechanical or structural issues. Mileage progression aligns with typical use for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The odometer advanced from 78,907 miles at the 11 March 2022 test to 87,859 miles by 20 March 2023, then 98,443 miles on 28 March 2024, 106,655 miles on 18 March 2025, and 115,458 miles on 20 March 2026. Annual increments sit near 9,000 miles, reflecting steady private or light commercial operation rather than prolonged standing or high-stress fleet duty. The DVSA data shows no gaps exceeding one year between tests, confirming continuous lawful road use. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the mileage threshold. The MOT history lacks any recorded corrosion or binding calipers, yet older Mercedes SUVs often develop underbody rust and worn anti-roll bar links that a short test bay check might miss. Examine exhaust emissions hardware and tyre tread depth personally, as consumable wear falls outside the snapshot guarantee. The absence of advisories across five consecutive passes suggests diligent upkeep by prior owners. Physical verification of structural integrity around sills and subframes remains prudent before purchase, but the documented record provides strong assurance of mechanical stability.
