2014 Fiat Doblo 1.2L Diesel · CV64 JDZ

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a worsening trajectory regarding suspension and tyre condition. The most recent test in April 2026 at 111,633 miles identified multiple defects including a severely deteriorated offside front anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover and worn bushes on both rear trailing arm suspension arms. While the vehicle passed, the frequency of these suspension-related advisories across the last three years suggests that components are reaching the end of their functional life and are not being replaced preventatively. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per year. There is a significant gap in recorded data between February 2022 at 73,819 miles and September 2023 at 106,777 miles, representing an accumulation of over 32,000 miles in 19 months. Since then, the vehicle has covered roughly 5,000 miles per year between tests. This recent burst of mileage likely explains the accelerated wear seen on consumables and secondary suspension components noted in the more recent records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension geometry, as the record repeatedly flags worn bushes and perished rubber boots on joints. The persistent issue of inner-edge tyre wear noted in both April 2025 and April 2026 indicates a likely alignment issue or worn suspension components that remain unaddressed. Additionally, the power steering fluid level was noted as low in 2025, which necessitates a check for leaks around the rack or pump seals. The offside front brake disc flagged in 2025 should be measured for thickness to ensure it has not reached the minimum safety limit.
