2007 FIAT DUCATO2.3L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-07-17 at 135,303 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating stable roadworthiness. Analysis of the past three years shows consistent maintenance, with no recurring issues across annual tests. The 2024-2025 cycle mirrors earlier years, confirming a lack of emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The single failed test in 2022-08-01 at 100,540 miles recorded no defects, suggesting either a data anomaly or a non-critical failure that was resolved before subsequent passes. The vehicle’s mileage of 135,303 miles aligns with an average of 7,121 miles annually, typical for its 19-year age. MOT entries show regular testing intervals, with the 2022-08-02 test at 100,540 miles followed by a duplicate entry on 2022-08-01 at the same mileage, possibly indicating a recording error. No gaps in testing exceed 12 months, reflecting routine compliance. The absence of defects in all but the 2022 failed test suggests no significant mechanical degradation, though the high mileage warrants scrutiny of wear-prone components. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for aged bushes or coil springs, common in vehicles of this age, and check brake discs for uneven wear given the high mileage. Structural rust, particularly in the chassis or body seams, should be assessed, as corrosion can develop over 19 years. While MOT records show no immediate risks, the lack of detailed defect notes on the 2022 failure means hidden issues may exist. A pre-purchase inspection should prioritize these areas to confirm the vehicle’s continued reliability.
