2010 Iveco Daily 35S13 MWB 2.3L Diesel · HX60 EKR

This IVECO Daily 35S13 MWB exhibits a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT record, though the single test in June 2023—conducted at 204,245 miles—lacks recent verification. The vehicle passed without any defects or advisories, suggesting no immediate failures were detected at the time. However, the absence of subsequent tests means critical components like brakes, suspension, and exhaust systems have not been reassessed since mid-2023, leaving a gap of nearly three years. For a vehicle of this age and mileage, such a long interval between tests raises concerns about deferred maintenance or undocumented issues. The recorded mileage of 204,245 miles over approximately 16 years equates to an average of around 12,765 miles annually, which is unusually high for a commercial van of this vintage. While this could indicate consistent use, it also implies accelerated wear on high-stress components such as tyres, brakes, and suspension bushes. There are no intermediate MOT records to confirm whether the vehicle was regularly serviced or if mileage was accumulated rapidly between tests. The lack of data makes it impossible to determine if previous owners adhered to a structured maintenance schedule or if the vehicle was operated with minimal upkeep. Given the sparse MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear axle and steering linkages, where wear is often underestimated in high-mileage vans. The brakes, including calipers, pads, and discs, should be thoroughly checked for uneven wear or binding, as these are critical for safety and frequently overlooked in older vehicles. Corrosion in the subframe, wheel arches, and exhaust system—common in commercial vans exposed to varying conditions—must also be examined, as structural integrity can degrade silently over time. The tyres, though not flagged in the single test, should be scrutinised for uneven tread wear or internal damage, given the high mileage. Finally, the engine bay and transmission should be inspected for leaks or unusual fluid discolouration, as these often signal neglected servicing.
