2014 Mercedes-Benz GL 3.0L Diesel · UD12 HAY

The vehicle presents a stable level of roadworthiness, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 16 February 2026 at 157,866 miles which passed with no recorded defects. This indicates that the current owner is maintaining the vehicle to a standard that meets minimum safety requirements. The trend over the last five years shows a consistent pattern of clean passes, suggesting that major mechanical and structural components are currently functioning within acceptable parameters without immediate failure. The mileage profile reflects heavy usage, averaging approximately 13,156 miles per year over its twelve-year lifespan. The data shows consistent accumulation, such as the 7,000 miles driven between February 2025 and February 2026, and another 7,000 miles between February 2024 and February 2025. This high annual mileage places significant strain on the drivetrain and heavy suspension components, yet the lack of recurring failures suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left to sit and deteriorate. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, as the tester noted worn rear brake discs during the February 2024 test at 143,991 miles. While the subsequent tests passed without defects, the high mileage suggests that wearable components like pads and rotors may be nearing their service intervals. Given the age and distance of this Mercedes GL, a thorough check of the air suspension system and rubber bushings is essential, as these are common points of failure on high-mileage luxury SUVs that a standard MOT may not fully capture.
