2014 Mercedes-Benz E 2.1L Diesel · SA64 PYV

This 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness status and a completely stable maintenance trajectory, culminating in a clean pass on 2026-02-05 at 76,468 miles with zero defects recorded. The historical data reveals an unblemished record across the examined timeline, showing that every single test resulted in an immediate pass without a single advisory notice issued. Such a pristine inspection sheet indicates proactive mechanical stewardship by previous keepers, setting this vehicle apart from typical used models that frequently accumulate minor component wear items over time. The mileage accumulation follows a remarkably consistent trajectory that aligns with normal UK driving patterns for a diesel executive saloon of this age. The car covered 6,011 miles between the October 2021 test at 57,170 miles and October 2022 at 63,581 miles, followed by a modest 6,004 miles up to October 2023 at 69,585 miles. A slightly extended test interval occurred before the February 2025 pass at 71,122 miles, and the odometer advanced by 5,346 miles in the twelve months leading to the most recent February 2026 test. This steady moderate usage confirms the vehicle has remained in regular operation without enduring prolonged periods of storage or excessive fleet mileage. Evaluating the mechanical condition requires looking beyond the spotless MOT certificates, as testers inspect specific safety-related assemblies rather than component lifespan. A physical inspection should prioritize the multi-link suspension bushings, air suspension components if fitted, and the braking system discs and pads, which receive heavy work on heavier Mercedes models. Inspecting the subframes and brake lines for surface corrosion remains prudent given the age of the vehicle, alongside checking the engine bay for any oil leaks or auxiliary belt wear that would not appear on a standard DVSA test sheet.
