2017 DAF Trucks LF 4.5L Heavy oil · FN67 ACZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 11 May 2026 at 116,300 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passes without any recorded advisories or failures over the last four years. The mileage data contains significant discrepancies that suggest recording errors or odometer tampering. The vehicle showed 158,611 miles in September 2022 and climbed to 164,485 miles by May 2023. However, the May 2024 test recorded a lower figure of 106,672 miles. This trend continues with a jump to 179,521 miles in May 2025, before dropping again to 116,300 miles in May 2026. Such erratic mileage readings are a major red flag and invalidate the ability to track actual wear and tear based on the DVSA record alone. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and drivetrain to determine the true age and usage of the components. Given the conflicting mileage, priority should be placed on checking for structural corrosion and the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs. The inconsistency in the records means there is no reliable data on when consumables like brake discs or tyres were last replaced. Verify the service history against the MOT dates to see if the mechanical upkeep aligns with the fluctuating mileage. Pay close attention to the gearbox and clutch operation, as the potential for high-mileage wear is high despite the most recent low reading. Check for any signs of recent repairs that might have been intended to mask long-term neglect or odometer correction.
