2007 MAN TGL 4.6L Diesel · DK07 HKY

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on 25 September 2025 at 140,542 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, following a failure just one day prior at 140,432 miles. This isolated failure suggests a minor adjustment issue or a sensor-related fault that was immediately rectified, as the vehicle subsequently passed a clean test without any recorded advisories or mechanical faults. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a nineteen-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 124,440 miles and September 2025 at 140,542 miles, the vehicle covered 16,102 miles, indicating a steady and predictable usage pattern rather than long periods of stagnation which can lead to dry-rot in tyres or seized brake components from standing. The lack of rapid mileage accumulation across these intervals suggests the drivetrain and suspension components have been utilized systematically. Given the clean nature of the MOT history, a buyer should focus physical inspections on age-related degradation rather than recurring mechanical failures. At 140,000 miles, the chassis integrity requires a close check for structural corrosion, particularly on frame members where the tester may only flag surface rust. Examine the condition of the rubber suspension bushes and the state of the brake lines, as these components often perish due to age regardless of low mileage.
