2004 Iveco Daily 2.8L Diesel · CU04 FSG

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status, following a period of minor retest failures. The most recent inspection conducted in October 2025 at 252,452 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical issues from previous years have been addressed. While the history shows a pattern of failing immediately before a scheduled test, the subsequent clean-sheet passes suggest the owner is proactive in rectifying faults to maintain a legal road certificate. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a 22-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging 11,500 miles per year. Between October 2023 and October 2024, the vehicle covered 22,977 miles, representing a slightly higher usage period compared to the interval between September 2024 and October 2025 which saw another 22,309 miles. This steady mileage suggests the drivetrain and suspension components are under regular load, which often prevents the seal failures and brake seizing commonly associated with long periods of inactivity. A physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and load members, as these are prone to corrosion on Ivecos of this era. Given the failures recorded in 2023 and 2024, the buyer must verify the current condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs to ensure previous issues have not returned. The high mileage of over 250,000 miles also necessitates a close check for oil leaks around the engine block and the condition of the brake lines for pitting or corrosion.
