2011 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · YJ61 AOX

The Fiat Ducato failed its most recent MOT on 31 March 2026 at 21,880 miles. The DVSA record shows no defects listed against that failure, which points to an administrative or unrecorded issue rather than a clear mechanical fault. Prior to this, the van held a stable pass trend across five consecutive years with no advisories raised. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally low use for a 2011 vehicle. The odometer moved from 20,494 miles at the April 2022 test to 21,880 miles by March 2026, an increase of just 1,386 miles over four years. Annual accumulation sat near 350 miles in the last cycle. Such low running suggests long periods of standing, though the clean pass history from 2022 through 2025 shows no corrosion or suspension wear flagged during those tests. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person given the 2026 failure with no stated defect. Confirm the exact reason for the failed test with the testing station or VOSA. The low mileage and static record mean brake calipers, handbrake mechanism, and tyre sidewall condition may have degraded through inactivity rather than wear. Check underneath for structural rust on chassis rails and subframes, as the Ducato is prone to corrosion where moisture sits. Verify suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing from disuse. The absence of advisories across the record implies basic upkeep was adequate, but the latest failure breaks a clean trend and warrants direct verification before purchase.
