2014 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · GO14 MAD

The vehicle presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 14 April 2026 at 80,396 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the five-year record, with every annual examination from April 2023 through to April 2026 returning a pass or a same-day retest. The lone failure on 13 April 2026 at identical mileage carried no listed defects, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-driven stop. Annual mileage sits at a modest 6,700 per year against the car's 2014 build date, with the record showing 53,551 miles in April 2023, 58,537 in April 2024, 69,010 in April 2025, and 80,396 by April 2026. The step from 58,537 to 69,010 marks the heaviest single-year use at roughly 10,500 miles, yet remains within normal bounds. No prolonged standing periods or abrupt accumulation gaps appear in the data, and the clean advisory columns suggest the previous keeper addressed wear before each test. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and the lack of recorded advisories that might otherwise flag emerging wear. The absence of corrosion or structural notes in the MOT is reassuring, but twelve-year-old Mercedes units commonly develop undertray rust and perished rear subframe mounts unseen by the annual test. Verify the 13 April 2026 failure reason with DVSA, as the blank defect field prevents confirmation of whether a documentation error or presentational issue caused the reject. Otherwise, the history implies conscientious upkeep with no recurring mechanical trend requiring intervention.
