2006 Fiat Ducato 2.8L Diesel · FP06 GLK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the clean results of its latest MOT test. The most recent inspection conducted in April 2023 at 201,542 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle met all legal standards at that time. While a failure was recorded in March 2022 at 191,543 miles, the immediate re-pass the following day suggests a minor component failure that was quickly rectified rather than a systemic mechanical issue. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a twenty-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between March 2020 and April 2023, the vehicle covered 28,345 miles, showing a steady rate of use that avoids the risks associated with long periods of standing. The last recorded MOT was in April 2023, meaning the vehicle is now three years overdue for a fresh safety test. This gap is a significant concern as the mechanical state of components like brake lines, tyres, and shock absorbers could have deteriorated since the last recorded inspection. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the Ducato chassis and floor pans, as these vehicles are prone to hidden corrosion over two decades. Given the high mileage of over 200,000 miles, the suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for excessive wear or tearing. Because the record lacks advisories for the final three years, a thorough check of the brake fluid leaks and the condition of the discs is essential to ensure no binding issues have developed since the 2023 test.
