2014 Mercedes-Benz A-Class 1.5L Diesel · KM14 UDL

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz A-Class presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 25 October 2025 at 123,216 miles where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The test history shows no recurring mechanical or structural faults across the five entries supplied. This indicates the previous keeper addressed roadworthiness requirements without allowing advisories or failures to accumulate into worsening conditions. Annual mileage sits at a typical 10,268 miles for a twelve-year-old car. The record moves from 104,997 miles at the failed test of 15 November 2023 to 105,327 miles on the pass of 1 December 2023, then 119,185 miles by 7 November 2024 and 123,216 miles by October 2025. The step between late 2023 and late 2024 accounts for roughly 14,000 miles, a modest rise above the yearly average. The supplied data is sparse and clean, with only two failed tests logged and both showing no defects recorded, suggesting administrative or presentation anomalies rather than mechanical rejection. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the car's age and 123,216 miles. The MOT record flags no corrosion or exhaust emission concerns, yet DVSA tests at this mileage can miss intermittent binding or worn rubber components absent on the day. Verify the twin October 2025 entries and the November 2023 fail with no defects to confirm the vehicle was not subject to abandoned retest paperwork. Previous keepers appear to have maintained statutory testing discipline, with the car never left untested beyond a short gap. The absence of advisories across four passes implies either prompt consumable replacement or light examiner reporting. Treat the clean sheet as a baseline, not a guarantee of component life, and budget for tyres, wiper blades and routine servicing off the back of the odometer.
