2021 Fiat Ducato 35 Maxi Multijet III 2.2L Diesel · FJ71 NFE

The Fiat Ducato 35 Maxi Multijet III presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass on 8 April 2025 at 92,100 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, with the most recent test recording no defects. However, the prior day's failure on 7 April 2025 at the identical mileage of 92,100 miles, also with no defects logged, indicates an administrative or documentation rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Such a pattern suggests the vehicle cleared its roadworthiness checks once the paperwork or test conditions were corrected. At roughly five years old, the van has covered 92,100 miles, equating to about 18,420 miles per year. That is high for a 2021 light commercial vehicle and points to sustained motorway or delivery use rather than short local trips. The MOT history shows no intermediate entries between first registration and the April 2025 tests, so the record is sparse. The clean pass with no advisories at 92,100 miles gives little insight into wear patterns, but the elevated annual mileage implies heavier loading on suspension bushes, drivetrain joints, and brake discs than a lower-use example. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the front suspension arms and rear leaf spring mounts, as high-mileage Ducatos commonly develop play in these areas despite a clean MOT. The tester logged no corrosion or structural concerns, yet the chassis outriggers and sill sections warrant visual checks for salt damage given the mileage. Given the twin April 2025 tests at the same odometer reading, verify the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm the failure cause was non-mechanical. If the one-day fail reflected a missed identifier or lighting check, the underlying condition is sound. If it masked a rushed repair, probe the brake calipers and exhaust emissions before purchase.
