2014 Mercedes-Benz SLK 2.1L Diesel · W321 ADB

The MOT history for this Mercedes-Benz SLK indicates a consistently high standard of roadworthiness over several years. The most recent inspection conducted in September 2025 at 39,172 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, mirroring the trend seen in the previous four annual tests. This suggests the vehicle has been maintained sufficiently to avoid the common mechanical failures seen in older models. The absence of recurring advisories across the records implies that the previous owners proactively addressed maintenance requirements before they reached a failure threshold. The vehicle's mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old car, averaging approximately 3,264 miles per year. The data shows a steady but incremental usage, moving from 21,632 miles in early 2022 to 39,172 miles by late 2025. While low mileage generally reduces wear on engine components, braking systems, and suspension, it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts. A buyer should still inspect the brake bushings, suspension bushes, and tyres for signs of cracking, as long periods of standing can compromise material integrity despite low tread depth. Given the clean test results, there are no immediate red flags regarding structural integrity or exhaust emissions. The record does not highlight any binding calipers, leaking dampers, or excessive corrosion issues that often plague vehicles of this age. The focus for a buyer should remain on the physical condition of the hardtop mechanism and the fluid levels, which are not fully captured by the standard MOT test. The documented history presents a vehicle that has been used sparingly and well-kept throughout its life.
