2017 Fiat Doblo 1.6L Diesel · CY17 EAP

The 2017 Fiat Doblo currently holds a valid roadworthiness pass from the 10 July 2025 test at 152,492 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the vehicle failed the test just one week earlier on 3 July 2025 at 152,490 miles with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. A similar pattern occurred in May 2022, when the tester failed the van on 9 May at 119,317 miles and passed it the next day with identical mileage and no defects logged. The recorded mileage of 152,492 over roughly nine years equates to about 16,944 miles per year, which is high for a vehicle of this age and points to sustained commercial or delivery use. Between the May 2022 pass at 119,317 miles and the April 2023 pass at 139,722 miles, the van covered 20,405 miles in eleven months. From April 2023 to July 2025 it added only 12,770 miles across twenty-seven months, indicating a slowdown in use or a period of reduced activity before the recent sale preparation. The DVSA record shows no advisories or flagged components across any test, so suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, exhaust emissions, and structural corrosion were not raised by testers. The repeated fail-pass pairs at identical mileages imply the previous keeper addressed minor compliance points quickly rather than neglecting the van, but the absence of written defects limits insight into wear levels. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person for consumable and structural condition not captured by a clean MOT. Given the high annual mileage, examine front suspension arms, driveshaft gaiters, and brake disc thickness for fatigue. Check underneath for chassis corrosion and inspect tyre sidewalls and tread, as the record offers no evidence these were monitored between tests.
