2019 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · YX68 BFY

The March 2026 test at 29,401 miles returned a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded, extending a sequence of five consecutive first-time passes. The maintenance trend is stable; the tester identified no wear items, corrosion, or emissions faults across the entire recorded history. Mileage accumulation has been inconsistent for a seven-year-old commercial vehicle. Between July 2022 and February 2023 the odometer advanced only 605 miles, dropping from 9,343 to 9,948, a pattern consistent with extended lay-up. Usage then rose to roughly 9,300 miles in the year to February 2024 before settling to approximately 5,000 miles per annum over the last two test cycles, reaching 24,427 miles in April 2025 and 29,401 miles in March 2026. A clean MOT record on a Ducato of this age demands careful physical verification. The prolonged low-mileage period increases the risk of seized brake calipers, perished suspension bushes, and degraded brake fluid that the test may not expose. Inspect the chassis legs and brake pipe runs for hidden corrosion accelerated by standing water, and confirm the timing belt or chain service history — intervals are time-dependent as well as mileage-based. Tyre date codes are critical; original rubber may still be fitted given the low covered distance.
