2021 Iveco Daily 2.3L Diesel · BN21 AHD

The most recent MOT test on 2026-04-13 confirms the vehicle passed without defects at 42,950 miles, indicating current roadworthiness. However, the history reveals a pattern of minor but recurring issues—specifically, two failed tests within a year for non-structural faults (washer system and MIL/indicator malfunction). While these are not critical failures, their repetition suggests inconsistent attention to basic fluid checks and electrical diagnostics. The latest pass without issues implies corrective action was taken, but buyers should verify whether these faults were properly resolved or merely bypassed. The mileage progression shows steady usage, averaging around 8,590 miles annually, which is typical for a commercial van of this age. There are no extended gaps or abrupt jumps in mileage, though the 2024 test cycle included two failures within five days—one for the MIL and another for the indicator—before passing the third attempt. This clustering could indicate delayed servicing or a lack of proactive maintenance. The most recent pass, just three months ago, aligns with the legal requirement, but the earlier failures warrant scrutiny of whether the vehicle was driven unsafely between tests. Given the history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the engine management system, particularly the MIL and associated wiring, to confirm no unresolved faults persist. The washer system failure suggests either a blocked nozzle or depleted reservoir, so checking fluid levels and spray patterns is essential. No structural or drivetrain issues are flagged, but the suspension bushes and coil springs should be examined for wear, especially if the van has seen heavy loads. Brakes were not noted in the MOT history, so verifying disc thickness, caliper binding, and rear brake adjustment is critical—particularly if the vehicle has carried significant payloads. Corrosion around wheel arches and underbody should also be assessed, as this age and mileage increase the risk of hidden structural fatigue.
