2016 Iveco Daily 2.3L Diesel · SR16 ACV

The 2016 Iveco Daily remains roadworthy per the most recent DVSA test on 16 April 2025 at 170,870 miles, which returned a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, showing annual passes with no advisories on braking, suspension, or structural integrity since the early 2022 anomaly. That anomaly saw a fail on 11 April 2022 at 105,301 miles with no defects listed, reversed by a pass nine days later at identical mileage. Mileage advanced from 105,301 on 20 April 2022 to 120,689 on 14 April 2023, then 146,974 on 12 April 2024, reaching 170,870 by 16 April 2025. This reflects consistent commercial use averaging 17,087 miles per year, high for a decade-old vehicle but without erratic jumps. The record is notably clean of consumable wear flags such as tyres or wiper blades, implying the previous keeper addressed minor items pre-test or the van entered tests well prepared. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of high-stress components given the accumulated distance. The tester logged no corrosion or exhaust emissions concerns, yet suspension bushes, coil springs, and binding calipers warrant physical checks for fatigue invisible on a pass certificate. The April 2022 fail with zero recorded defects hints at either a procedural rejection or rapid unlogged repair; verifying the V5C and any garage invoices from that window will confirm care patterns. Given the high mileage and sparse defect history, we advise focusing on structural integrity beneath the body. The Iveco Daily's ladder frame can hide rust at crossmember junctions despite a clean MOT. A ramp inspection should precede purchase.
