2016 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · SN16 AUK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on 28 May 2026 at 16,870 miles. The maintenance trend is stable, though the most recent testing cycle indicates a slight decline in attention to detail. The car failed its May 2026 test on 22 May due to multiple lighting faults and a damaged offside track rod end dust cover, suggesting that basic pre-test checks were neglected. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 1,687 miles per year. The record shows very gradual accumulation, moving from 6,017 miles in February 2019 to 16,870 miles by May 2026. Such low usage often implies the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary, which can lead to specific degradation issues not always captured in a standard MOT. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the steering and suspension components. The failure on 22 May 2026 regarding the track rod end dust cover is a point of concern, as a perished boot allows grit to enter the joint, accelerating wear. Given the low mileage and the pattern of failing on simple consumables like wiper blades in February 2020 and June 2024, the previous owner appears to have reacted to faults rather than performing preventative maintenance. Inspect the tyres for flat spots or sidewall cracking and check the brake discs for surface corrosion, both of which are common in low-mileage vehicles that stand for long periods. While the MOT history is largely clean of structural corrosion or major mechanical failures, the recent cluster of lighting faults suggests a lack of rigorous upkeep. Verify that all electrical systems are functioning correctly and that the steering feels tight and free of play.
