2016 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · 20 DEC

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2026-05-25 at 23,948 miles, but the tester recorded two new defects: an offside rear outline marker lamp failure and deterioration of the rear exhaust silencer outer skin. The preceding four annual tests showed a stable trend with no recorded faults, indicating consistent roadworthiness until this latest inspection where age-related wear has now surfaced. The maintenance pattern is therefore stable but showing early signs of deterioration consistent with a vehicle of this age, despite its exceptionally low mileage. The recorded mileage of 23,948 miles over approximately ten years equates to an average of just 2,395 miles annually, confirming very light use. The annual mileage increments are modest and consistent, with 750 miles recorded between the 2025 and 2026 tests, suggesting the vehicle has seen limited regular operation rather than periods of heavy use followed by standing. Such low annual mileage can mask age-related degradation in rubber components, seals, and corrosion-prone areas, as these deteriorate with time even without significant mechanical wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas flagged in the history and those prone to low-use issues. Examine the rear exhaust system thoroughly for further skin deterioration or perforation, and verify the correct operation of all rear lighting, particularly the outline marker lamp. The 2022 advisory for a slightly damaged rear tyre indicates a prior neglect of tyre condition; all four tyres must be checked for sidewall cracking or perishing. Furthermore, given the low mileage, inspect the brake discs for binding or uneven wear and all suspension bushes for deterioration, as these components can suffer from lack of use and environmental exposure. There is no history of structural defects or major suspension component failure in the record.
