2014 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · SR14 AEG

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT record at its most recent inspection. The July 2025 test at 78,140 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of successful testing over the previous years, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets basic regulatory requirements without recurring mechanical or structural failures. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The car has covered 78,140 miles, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression from 69,193 miles in June 2022 to 75,621 miles in June 2024, and finally 78,140 miles in July 2025. This incremental increase suggests regular, predictable use rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive high-speed motorway commuting. The only notable anomaly in the history is the failed test on June 12, 2023, at 72,830 miles. While the record does not specify the exact cause of this failure, the immediate pass on the same day indicates the issue was rectified promptly. Given the lack of subsequent advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions, the vehicle seems to have avoided the common degradation seen in older Mercedes-Benz models. A prospective buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underside to check for corrosion on the chassis and exhaust system. Although the MOT history is clean, the age of the vehicle warrants a close look at the condition of the suspension components and the integrity of the brake lines. Checking for any signs of oil leaks from the engine or gearbox would also be prudent to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean regulatory record.
