2022 DAF Trucks XF 480 FTG 12.9L Diesel · KY71 CUH

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-07 at 509,938 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2025-01-29 (404,603 miles) and 2024-01-26 (268,460 miles) also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. However, a failed test on 2025-01-29 at 404,599 miles—despite no defects recorded—raises questions about procedural accuracy or unlisted concerns. The absence of recurring mechanical faults in the record implies no critical systemic issues, but the high mileage and rapid accumulation warrant closer scrutiny. The truck’s mileage of 509,938 miles at 4 years old equates to an average of 127,484 miles annually, significantly above typical usage for its age. A notable jump from 268,460 miles in 2024 to 404,603 miles in 2025—over 136,000 miles in 12 months—suggests heavy operational use or potential odometer discrepancies. This rapid accumulation likely accelerates wear on components such as brake discs, suspension bushes, and drivetrain elements. The MOT history lacks detailed fault reports, but the sparse data does not confirm exceptional care, as no advisories or recurring issues are documented. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the braking system for uneven wear or binding calipers, given the high mileage, and assess suspension components for excessive play or worn coil springs. The exhaust system and emissions compliance should also be verified, as heavy use may affect these areas. Structural integrity should be checked for rust or corrosion, particularly in areas prone to moisture exposure. While the MOT records show no critical failures, the vehicle’s usage pattern and age necessitate a thorough mechanical inspection to confirm its condition aligns with the documented history.
