2011 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · FP61 FXE

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 28 October 2025 at 147,176 miles. While the pass rate remains consistent, the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in preventative care. The latest test identified thinning brake pads across three corners and play in the nearside front track rod end. These items indicate that the vehicle is now requiring attention to consumable mechanical components, moving away from the clean test results recorded between 2021 and 2023. The recorded mileage of 147,176 over fifteen years averages approximately 9,800 miles annually, which is standard for a commercial vehicle of this type. The progression of mileage is steady and logical, with no evidence of long periods of inactivity that might lead to seized components or perished rubber seals. The jump of roughly 12,000 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests suggests the vehicle remains in active service, which often helps keep drivetrain components lubricated and functional compared to vehicles left standing. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system, specifically verifying if the pads noted in October 2025 have since been replaced. The track rod end play suggests that the steering geometry may be compromised, which can lead to uneven tyre wear and poor handling. Given the age and utility nature of this Fiat Ducato, pay close attention to the exhaust system and the underside for corrosion, as the 2024 test already flagged central exhaust degradation. Ensure the steering rack boots are intact and check for any signs of fluid leaks around the suspension struts, as these components often reach the end of their service life at this mileage.
