2007 Fiat Ducato 2.2L Diesel · AO57 ARU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-10-09 at 42,623 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the past 12 months. Previous tests from 2024 and 2023 also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. The single failure in 2023-10-03 at 38,488 miles was recorded as a pass with no defects, raising questions about the test outcome but not indicating mechanical degradation. Overall, the absence of recurring faults or advisories implies the vehicle has been well-maintained in recent years. The mileage of 42,623 miles for a 19-year-old vehicle equates to approximately 2,243 miles annually, significantly below average. This low usage may reflect infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can lead to component stiffness or corrosion in systems like the suspension, brakes, or exhaust. The MOT history shows gradual mileage increases, with no abrupt spikes, but the 2023-10-03 failure occurred just 13 days after the preceding test at 38,540 miles, suggesting a possible administrative error or minimal operational use during that period. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of corrosion, particularly in the underbody and chassis, given its age and low mileage. Suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, may exhibit stiffness from inactivity, while brake systems could show binding if not regularly used. The absence of recorded defects in recent tests is positive, but the 2023 failure without explanation warrants verification of the MOT’s accuracy. No structural issues or emission-related faults were noted, but a physical inspection is essential to confirm the condition of critical systems.
