2020 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · CE20 AXZ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-03-24 at 80,929 miles resulted in a failure, though no defects were recorded. This contrasts with the prior two tests in 2024 and 2023, which passed without issues. The absence of recorded faults in the failure suggests either a technical anomaly or a procedural oversight, but the lack of follow-up inspections since 2025 raises concerns about maintenance continuity. The vehicle’s roadworthiness status remains uncertain without further diagnostic verification. The mileage progression reveals a sharp increase from 48,248 miles (2023) to 62,751 miles (2024), a 14,503-mile jump in 12 months, followed by another 18,178 miles by 2025. This accelerated accumulation exceeds the average annual usage for its age, implying frequent or heavy-duty operation. Such patterns often correlate with accelerated wear on brake components, suspension bushes, and drivetrain elements. The sparse defect history in earlier tests does not account for potential hidden degradation from this high-mileage trajectory. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the braking system for uneven wear or binding calipers, given the high usage, and assess suspension components for excessive play or corrosion. The exhaust system and structural integrity should also be checked, as rapid mileage can exacerbate fatigue in these areas. The 2025 failure, though unexplained, underscores the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm functional safety and identify any unresolved issues.
