2014 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · CU14 UDV

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz E presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 July 2025 at 82,399 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 5 July 2024 at 74,263 miles confirms the absence of recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 6,867 miles, typical for a twelve-year-old executive saloon. The records show steady accumulation: 63,363 miles on 17 November 2022, 65,264 miles by 27 July 2023, then 74,260 miles at the 5 July 2024 failure and 74,263 miles at the same-day pass. The only anomaly is a failed test on 5 July 2024 at 74,260 miles with no defects listed, corrected within hours at 74,263 miles, which points to an administrative or documentation error rather than a mechanical defect. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the vehicle's age, though no tester has flagged these. The DVSA data shows zero advisories for corrosion, exhaust emissions, or binding calipers, so structural integrity appears sound on paper. Previous keepers maintained test compliance without visible cost-cutting, as shown by four consecutive passes with no minor or major items raised. The clean trail implies disciplined servicing, but in-person checks on tyre sidewall condition and underbody rust remain prudent before purchase.
