2001 Daihatsu Fourtrak 2.8L Diesel · CU51 AKG

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 13 March 2025 with 113,530 miles. The maintenance trend appears improving, as the vehicle transitioned from a period of failures in 2023 and 2024 to a clean pass with no recorded defects in the latest annual inspection. This shift suggests that the previous owner addressed and rectified the mechanical or safety issues that had prevented the vehicle from passing prior tests. At 25 years old, the recorded mileage of 113,530 miles represents a low average of approximately 4,541 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a 4,552-mile interval between March 2023 and March 2024, and another 3,875 miles between March 2024 and March 2025. While low mileage generally indicates less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber components and the drying of seals. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and underbody, as older Daihatsu models are prone to structural corrosion that may not always manifest until it becomes significant. Given the previous failures in 2023 and 2024, specific attention should be paid to the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake lines to ensure the repairs made were robust. Checking for signs of fluid leaks or perished rubber hoses is also essential to confirm that the low mileage has not resulted in the neglect of age-related component decay.
