2024 Scania R500 12.7L Diesel · PN24 YBM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by consecutive clean MOT results. The most recent inspection conducted on 2 February 2026 at 210,076 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that the vehicle has maintained a high standard of operational compliance and that the primary mechanical and safety systems were functioning within acceptable parameters despite the heavy usage. The mileage profile reveals exceptionally high intensity for a two-year-old vehicle. Between the 10 March 2025 test at 89,292 miles and the February 2026 test at 210,076 miles, the truck covered 120,784 miles. This rate of over 100,000 miles per year suggests consistent long-distance haulage, which places significant accelerated stress on the drivetrain, turbocharger, and cooling-related components. While the MOT record shows no failures, the in-person inspection must focus on components most susceptible to high-mileage fatigue. A buyer should evaluate the condition of the suspension air, bushings, and shock absorbers for signs of premature wear or leaking. The braking system requires a thorough check for caliper seal wear or thin discs, as the high mileage suggests these consumables are nearing rapidly. Additionally, the chassis should be inspected for any structural stress fractures to ensure that the heavy duty cycle has not compromised the integrity of the frame.
