2014 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · MR14 AAC

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness trend, evidenced by four consecutive passes following a singular failure in December 2022. The most recent test conducted on 15 December 2025 at 79,843 miles resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This sequence indicates that the vehicle has successfully met statutory safety and environmental standards during its most recent inspections. Accumulating 79,843 miles over a twelve-year period equates to an average annual usage of approximately 6,650 miles. This rate of progression is consistent and suggests regular, moderate use rather than prolonged periods of inactivity. The MOT record shows a dense frequency of testing in recent years, with inspections occurring in late 2022, early 2024, late 2024, and late 2025. This cadence provides a clear view of the vehicle's condition over the last four years, during which no persistent mechanical or structural issues have been flagged by testers. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that typically wear at this age and mileage, specifically the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs, which are not always fully captured by the MOT test procedure. Given the absence of recent advisories, the braking system and exhaust emissions appear to be functioning within parameters, yet a manual check of brake disc thickness and pad material remains necessary to confirm current consumable life. While the MOT history is clean, it does not account for the condition of the drivetrain or the internal state of the engine, which require a separate mechanical assessment to determine overall operational health. Buying score: 85. Risk level: Low.
