2012 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · FG62 ADX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2024-05-17 at 254,333 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but this test occurred over two years ago. Earlier in 2024, a failed test on 2024-05-02 at 254,282 miles also showed no defects, suggesting potential inconsistencies in testing or maintenance practices. The 2023 tests at 238,923 miles similarly passed and failed without recorded issues, indicating a lack of clear mechanical trends. While no critical failures are documented, the absence of recent inspections and the high mileage raise concerns about unaddressed wear. The vehicle’s 254,333 miles over 14 years equates to 18,167 miles annually, significantly above average for its age, which accelerates wear on components like brakes, suspension, and drivetrain. The MOT records show minimal gaps between tests, but the lack of defect details in failed assessments limits insight into underlying issues. Notably, the 2022 test at 230,960 miles passed without notes, suggesting a possible pattern of minimal scrutiny or deferred maintenance. This mileage trajectory implies frequent use, increasing the likelihood of fatigue in critical systems. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension, particularly bushings and coil springs, given the high mileage and potential for wear. Brake components, including discs and calipers, warrant close examination for uneven wear or corrosion. Structural integrity, especially around the chassis and body mounts, should be verified to rule out hidden rust or damage. The absence of detailed MOT findings means a physical inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition beyond recorded data.
