2013 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · FL13 DGE

The 2013 Fiat Ducato currently holds no valid MOT certificate, with its last recorded pass occurring on 17 June 2022 at 173,949 miles. The maintenance trend is unverified and cannot be classified as stable, worsening, or improving due to the complete absence of any test data for over four years. A notable anomaly appears in the record: failed tests on 8 June 2021 and 17 June 2022 both list no recorded defects, which is inconsistent with a failure outcome and suggests either a data capture error or an unrecorded major fault. Without a recent inspection, the vehicle's present roadworthiness remains entirely unconfirmed. The mileage profile indicates heavy commercial use followed by a prolonged period of inactivity. Between the test on 8 June 2021 at 159,140 miles and the test on 17 June 2022 at 173,949 miles, the Ducato covered 14,809 miles in just over a year, a high annual rate consistent with intensive fleet or trade operation. Since that June 2022 test, the recorded mileage has not advanced, pointing to the vehicle standing stationary or being kept off the public road for roughly four years. This extended dormancy shifts the risk profile from consumable wear to deterioration caused by sitting idle. A buyer must inspect the mechanical and structural components that suffer when a vehicle stands unused. Brake discs will likely exhibit surface corrosion, and calipers may bind or seize due to piston corrosion and degraded fluid. Suspension bushes and coil springs can perish or settle, while tyres may show flat-spotting, sidewall cracking, or loss of pressure from prolonged static load. The exhaust system should be checked for internal corrosion and leaks, and all fluids—brake, coolant, and engine oil—require assessment for moisture contamination and viscosity breakdown. Given the high mileage accumulated before storage, the chassis, subframe mounting points, and load-bearing structural sections need close examination for corrosion and fatigue cracks. The absence of a current MOT means none of these critical safety and structural elements have been recently verified.
