2010 FIAT DUCATO3.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in September 2022 with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears generally stable, as the vehicle has maintained a clean record since resolving issues encountered in the previous year. While there were two failures in early 2021, these were rectified promptly, leading to consecutive passes without further faults, indicating that the owner is willing to address necessary repairs when they are identified. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a vehicle from 2010, averaging approximately 4,034 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between January 2020 and January 2021, during which the vehicle covered only 1,452 miles in a full year. This low activity suggests the van likely sat stationary for extended periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, dry seals, and flat-spotting of tyres despite the low mechanical wear recorded on the odometer. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity, as low-mileage commercial vans are prone to hidden corrosion in the chassis and floor pans. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension components, specifically bushes and shock artwork, which can perish from age and age rather than use. Given the history of low mileage, checking for seized brakes and fluid leaks is also essential to ensure that long periods of standing have not compromised the braking system or internal engine seals.
