2017 DAF Trucks CF 460 FTG 12.9L Diesel · DC17 JWC

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, demonstrating a consistent history of passing tests over the last five years. The most recent inspection on 17 July 2025 at 665,472 miles resulted in only a minor defect regarding an offside window wind deflector partially obstructing the rear view. This failure represents a cosmetic or peripheral issue rather than a mechanical failure, suggesting that the primary safety-critical systems have remained within acceptable operating parameters despite the high-mile profile. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally aggressive, with the vehicle averaging approximately 74,000 miles per year over its nine-year life. Between August 2021 at 308,879 miles and July 2025 at 665,472 miles, the truck covered over 356,000 miles in just four years. This rapid usage indicates heavy-duty commercial application, which typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and chassis hardware. However, the lack of recorded defects between 2021 and 2024 points to a proactive maintenance regime that prevented major failures during those intervals. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the high-wear components that are not fully captured by MOT tests. Focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and the suspension bushes, as these areas endure significant stress under constant loads and high annual mileage. Given the usage, the braking system should be checked for binding calipers or thin discs, and the engine bay should be inspected for any fluid leaks. While the MOT record is clean, the sheer volume of miles travelled increases the risk of component fatigue in the turbocharger and air suspension systems.
