2014 Mercedes-Benz B-Class 1.5L Diesel · FH14 LDJ

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz B-Class presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 23 April 2025 at 54,524 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Across the four available annual tests from May 2022 to April 2025, the vehicle cleared every examination without a single advisory or failure. This unbroken clean record indicates consistent baseline upkeep and no escalating mechanical concerns. The odometer shows 54,524 miles against roughly twelve years of age, equating to about 4,544 miles per year. The April 2022 test logged 44,355 miles, rising to 47,478 by April 2023, 51,082 by April 2024, and 54,524 by April 2025. Annual accumulation held near 3,400 to 3,600 miles with no gaps or sudden jumps. Such low, steady use suggests light private motoring rather than fleet or commuter abuse, though prolonged standing periods remain plausible and were not captured by the record. No tester flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion at any point. The absence of advisories means the buyer cannot infer specific worn components from the history itself. Given the clean slate, a pre-purchase inspection should still scrutinise typical low-mileage neglect points: perished rubber seals, flat-spotted tyres from sitting, and latent corrosion on subframes invisible during a pass test. The April 2025 pass is fifteen months old relative to today's date of 8 July 2026, so the next test is due by late April 2026 and has likely lapsed or is imminent. A buyer should confirm current test validity and commission an independent mechanical check before transaction, as the documentary record alone shows no faults but cannot certify present condition.
