2014 Mercedes-Benz C 2.1L Diesel · ST64 AAJ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-09-25 at 105,654 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status at that point. However, the preceding test on 2025-09-24 at 105,652 miles resulted in a fail with no defects listed, suggesting a potential administrative error or minor issue resolved between tests. The prior pass on 2025-05-21 at 103,335 miles and the earlier fail on 2025-05-19 at the same mileage further imply inconsistent testing outcomes without recorded faults. This pattern does not confirm a worsening trend but raises questions about the reliability of the MOT data. The vehicle’s age and mileage align with typical usage, but the lack of recent inspections beyond September 2025 leaves gaps in assessing its current condition. The mileage progression shows steady accumulation, with 95,779 miles recorded in March 2024 and 105,654 miles in September 2025, averaging around 8,800 miles annually. This rate is consistent with the vehicle’s 12-year lifespan, suggesting regular use rather than prolonged inactivity. No significant gaps or spikes in mileage are evident, though the absence of MOT records between September 2025 and July 2026 means the vehicle’s status is unverified for over 10 months. This period without inspection increases the risk of undetected issues, particularly in components subject to gradual wear. A buyer should prioritize a detailed inspection of the suspension system, including bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The brake system, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny due to the frequent MOT tests, which may indicate intermittent issues. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as rust or corrosion could develop over time. The lack of recorded defects in recent MOTs is positive, but the absence of up-to-date testing means critical faults could have emerged since September 2025. A professional mechanic’s evaluation is essential to confirm the vehicle’s safety and identify any hidden maintenance needs.
