2014 Mercedes-Benz E 3.0L Diesel · DV14 AXA

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted in March 2026 at 84,198 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following three consecutive years of clean results. This consistency suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and that the mechanical and structural components are not currently experiencing the type of rapid degradation often seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's twelve-year age, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum. Between March 2024 and March 2026, the car covered 13,027 miles, indicating steady and predictable usage patterns. The only anomaly in the record is a brief failure in March 2023 at 64,409 miles, which was rectified immediately given the re-test the same day. This indicates a minor issue that was addressed promptly rather than a chronic or developing mechanical fault. Despite the clean history, an in-person inspection should still focus on common wear points for a Mercedes-Benz E-Class of this era. Inspection should target the suspension system, specifically the control arm bushes and coil springs, which can perish or fatigue over time regardless of mileage. The buyer should also check for signs of minor corrosion on the underside and verify the condition of the brake fluid lines, as the MOT test does not always detect slow weeping leaks until they reach a failure threshold.
