2017 MAN TGS 26.360 6X2-2 BL 10.5L Diesel · DK67 VTX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean MOT record across its documented history. The most recent test conducted on 26 October 2023 at 234,915 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This suggests that the previous operators have maintained the mechanical and structural integrity to a standard that meets DVSA safety requirements without recurring failures in common heavy-vehicle components. The mileage data indicates a high-intensity usage pattern, averaging approximately 26,000 miles per year over the last nine years. Between July 2019 and November 2020, the vehicle covered 51,262 miles, representing a significant surge in activity. The accumulation has remained high in subsequent years, with an additional 40,658 miles logged between the November 2022 and October 2023 tests. While this high mileage suggests consistent commercial use, the level of operation typically places greater stress on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems compared to lower-mileage examples. Given the high annual mileage, a physical inspection must focus on components subject to heavy-duty wear. A buyer should scrutinize the chassis for signs of structural corrosion or stress fractures, particularly around the mounting points and frame rails. The air system and suspension bellows should be checked for leaks or perished rubber, as the high mileage often accelerates the degradation of seals. Although the MOT history is clean, the physical state of brake discs and the condition of the shock absorbers remain critical to ensure they are not nearing immediate replacement intervals.
