FIAT DUCATO1988 · 2.4L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a clear trend of improvement over the last several years. The most recent test in November 2025 at 105,675 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a series of equally clean results in 2022 and 2024. This indicates that the mechanical and electrical issues identified in earlier inspections have been addressed and are currently being maintained. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 38-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,780 miles per year. Data between July 2019 and June 2024 shows the vehicle covered only 1,193 miles over five years, suggesting it sits for long periods or is used sparingly. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such infrequent use often leads to the degradation of rubber-based parts, seized calipers, and internal corrosion which is not always captured by mileage alone. A buyer should focus physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and floorpan, as older Ducato models are prone to significant rust. The 2019 record flagged pitted brake discs and a damaged front engine mounting, though these appear to have been rectified given the subsequent clean records. It is vital to verify that the engine mounting remains secure and to check the exhaust system for signs of the leak that was previously noted. Given the long gaps between uses, a thorough check of the brake lines, fuel hoses, and suspension bushes is necessary to ensure they have not perished or perished during the periods of inactivity.
