2007 Iveco Daily 35C12 MWB 2.3L Diesel · FJ57 NPF

The latest MOT test conducted on 15 January 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. The overall maintenance trend for this vehicle is exceptionally stable, as it has consistently passed its annual inspections over the last several years without any recorded advisories or failure points. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance and indicates that the vehicle has been kept in a roadworthy condition without the recurring issues often associated with older commercial vehicles. With a recorded mileage of 185,815 miles over approximately 19 years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 9,780 miles per year. This usage rate is typical for its age and suggests a consistent operational history rather than periods of prolonged standing or excessive, high-intensity use. While the total mileage is significant, the steady annual accumulation implies that the drivetrain and chassis have remained in regular use, which generally prevents the seizure of components and the accelerated degradation of seals and gaskets often seen in low-mileage older vehicles. Because the MOT history is remarkably clean and devoid of advisories, the buyer must focus on age-related wear and tear that may not be captured during a standard inspection. It is essential to examine the tyre sidewalls for perishing or hairline cracking, as rubber degrades over time regardless of the remaining tread depth. The buyer should also inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure there are no binding calipers, which can occur as components age. The health of the 12V battery should be verified, and the service book should be checked for evidence of calendar-based fluid changes, specifically for the engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid, which degrade chemically over time. During a test drive, the buyer should listen for any clunks or knocks from the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components naturally fatigue over nearly two decades of service. A thorough physical inspection of the chassis rails and underbody for structural corrosion is critical, as surface rust can often mask deeper integrity issues. Finally, the buyer should check for any signs of oil seepage around the engine gaskets and verify that the exhaust system is secure and free from significant corrosion to ensure the vehicle remains compliant with emissions standards and operational requirements.
