2021 Iveco Daily 2.3L Diesel · CE71 AJX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT tests, conducted just six months ago on January 9, 2026, reveal an unusual but ultimately non-problematic anomaly—both tests at 41,308 miles were recorded as passed and failed simultaneously, a rare DVSA data duplication that does not indicate mechanical failure. No defects were logged in either instance, suggesting the tester did not identify any major issues during the inspection. The preceding test in September 2024 at 20,775 miles also passed without failings, confirming a stable maintenance record over the past two years. There is no evidence of recurring or worsening faults, though the duplication of test results warrants a closer examination of the vehicle’s service history to confirm no off-record repairs or hidden issues were overlooked. The recorded mileage of 41,308 miles over five years aligns with typical usage patterns for a commercial vehicle of this age, averaging around 8,262 miles annually. This suggests consistent operation rather than prolonged storage or neglect. The gap between the 2024 and 2026 tests—covering 20,533 miles—indicates regular driving, though the lack of intermediate service records means no insight into maintenance intervals or wear on high-wear components like suspension bushes, drivetrain seals, or brake linings. Without a full service history, potential buyers should verify whether critical components such as coil springs, steering dampers, or exhaust systems have been serviced or replaced within the expected intervals. Given the clean MOT record, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on components that typically fail between 20,000 and 50,000 miles: suspension bushes (particularly rear), brake caliper binding or excessive disc wear, and signs of corrosion in wheel arches or subframe areas. The absence of failings does not preclude gradual wear—tyre tread depth, brake pad thickness, and fluid levels should be checked independently. Additionally, the duplicated MOT results raise caution around the vehicle’s documentation; confirm whether the test centre’s system error was resolved and if any advisory notes were missed during the inspection. Structural integrity, especially around the cab-to-chassis welds and exhaust mounting points, should also be scrutinised, as these areas are prone to fatigue in commercial vehicles.
