FIAT DUCATO2014 · 3.0L Diesel

The 2014 Fiat Ducato presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 July 2025 at 162,239 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2023 to 2024 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failure on 22 June 2022 at 155,273 miles, reversed by a pass just seven days later on 29 June 2022 at 155,283 miles; the DVSA entry shows no defects listed against either outcome, suggesting an administrative or unrecorded rectification rather than a serious mechanical fault. Mileage sits high for a twelve-year-old van. The record shows 157,423 miles at the 3 July 2023 test, rising to 159,928 by 25 June 2024 and 162,239 by July 2025, an average of roughly 2,300 miles per year across those intervals against a lifetime mean near 13,500. The early-life mileage is unrecorded here, but the recent low annual use implies the vehicle spent its high-mileage phase before 2022. The clean pass history with no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion points to either light recent duty or consistent upkeep, though the sparse gap between the 2022 failure and pass leaves little technical detail to assess. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the age and original high-use profile. The absence of advisories across four passes does not exempt the Ducato from typical wear on its front suspension arms and rear leaf spring mounts, nor from diesel emissions system checks on the 2.3 litre unit. Verify the brake calipers are free and the exhaust is sound, as these items drew no tester comment but degrade silently between tests. The 2022 failure with no listed defect warrants a request for the original test centre notes if available. Otherwise the documented record supports a van that has cleared every test since mid-2022 without flagged consumable or mechanical risk, a pattern consistent with an owner addressing issues promptly when raised.
