1999 Fiat Ducato 1.9L Diesel · V648 DYB

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on January 28, 2026 at 94,225 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the record shows a technical failure just sixteen days prior to that pass at the same mileage. Since no defects were recorded during the passes in 2022, 2024, and 2026, the mechanical and structural components currently meet the minimum legal requirements for road use. The mileage profile is notably low for a 27-year-old vehicle, averaging only approximately 3,500 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between the November 2022 test at 90,452 miles and the June 2024 test at 92,653 miles, representing barely 2,200 miles over seventeen months. This suggests the vehicle is either used for very short trips or sits stationary for extended periods. Such usage patterns often lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, perished seals, and brake corrosion, despite the low mechanical wear on the drivetrain. Given the vehicle's age and low mileage, a buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the structural integrity and braking system. Low-use vehicles frequently suffer from hidden surface corrosion on the sills and floor pans, which does not always manifest until it is advanced. Check for seized brake calipers or pitted discs caused by lack of regular use, and inspect the suspension bushes and shock absorbers for cracking or leaking, as age-related fatigue occurs independently of mileage-driven wear.
