Our Verdict
A remarkably well-maintained vintage workhorse vehicle that shows a consistent history of MOT passes. However, the age and mileage necessitate a thorough inspection of structural integrity and mechanical wear before purchase.
When buying a vehicle of this age, the priority is the service history. While the MOT shows it is legal, you need to verify that regular oil changes and fluid checks have been performed on the 2800 engine. Pay close attention to any signs of rust on the chassis and frame members, as this is the primary concern for commercial vehicles from the late 90s. Check the condition of the tyres and suspension components. Given the age, rubber bushings may be perished or cracked regardless of tread depth. Negotiate on if there are any recent advisories that have been ignored, such as the worn brake discs noted in the 2015 test.
As an older 2.8L diesel, you should expect relatively high fuel consumption compared to modern counterparts. Tax will likely be lower due to the age, but insurance groups can vary significantly depending on the specific use of the vehicle. nMaintenance costs are generally manageable as parts are often available, but specialist Iveco components can be pric. Budget an annual running cost of approximately £1,800-£2,400, accounting for fuel, basic servicing, and a fund for unexpected repairs.
Inspect the underside thoroughly for corrosion. The MOT history from 2015 mentioned a worn nearside rear brake disc; ensure the entire braking system has been serviced recently and that discs aren't seizing or wearing excessively. Look for any oil leaks around the engine block and turbo, which are common on high-mileage diesel engines of this era. The 2011 failure for registration plate lamps is a minor electrical issue, but you should check the overall wiring harness for signs of corrosion or damage, which can affect older vehicles exposed to the elements. Ensure all lights and indicators are fully functional.
This 1998 Iveco with a 2.8L diesel engine has covered 142,042 miles over its 28-year life. Its MOT history is exceptionally clean, with no failures recorded in the last decade, suggesting the vehicle has been regularly looked after. While the mileage is significant, the steady progression of the odometer indicates it has been used consistently rather than a utility or enthusiast buyer.
The 2.8L Iveco engines from this era are generally regarded for their durability if the cooling system and lubrication are kept maintained.
