2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2.1L Diesel · DA63 GFG

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter passed its most recent MOT on 1 October 2025 at 278,040 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy as of that test. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available record, with clean passes in 2024 and 2023 and no advisories or mechanical faults ever logged by testers. The van shows high use for its age, covering roughly 23,170 miles per year across twelve years to reach 278,040 miles. Mileage moved from 261,560 at the September 2023 failure to 271,230 by September 2024 and 278,040 by October 2025, a steady annual climb of about 8,000 to 9,000 miles in the later period. The DVSA entries are sparse, with only five tests shown and no defects listed on any pass or failure, so the record gives little detail on wear history beyond the odometer. The two failures on 13 September 2023 and 27 September 2025 both recorded no defects, meaning the tester issued a rejection for administrative or unlogged reasons rather than flagged corrosion, brake discs, suspension bushes, or exhaust faults. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity, coil springs, and binding calipers in person, as a high-mileage Sprinter of this age commonly hides chassis rust and worn suspension components that a no-defect MOT will not reveal. Given the 278,014-to-278,040-mile span between the September 2025 fail and October 2025 pass, the vehicle changed status within four days with negligible mileage, suggesting the earlier rejection was a paperwork or presentation issue rather than a mechanical repair. Verify the VIN and test certificate against DVSA data before purchase, and commission a independent inspection of the drivetrain and brake system given the accumulated distance.
