2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class 5.5L Petrol · WN64 YAV

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 11 March 2026 at 64,020 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This streak of perfect records suggests the previous owners have maintained the car to a standard that avoids the common mechanical and structural failures seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old S-Class, averaging approximately 5,335 miles per annum. Data shows consistent usage over the years, such as the 10,725 miles driven between June 2022 and June 2024, followed by a 6,155-mile interval between June 2024 and March 2026. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the intervals between tests suggest the car is used for short trips or undergoes periods of standing, which can occasionally lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid seals. Despite the clean digital record, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage neglect. Check the air suspension system for signs of leaking or sagging, as rubber bellows can perish when a vehicle sits stationary. Inspect the brake discs for excessive surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs when brakes are not frequently used to clear rust. Additionally, examine the suspension bushes and control arms for cracking, as age often outpaces mileage in causing drying and hardening of these materials before they manifest as a failure.
