2011 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · FP61 FXR

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean MOT pass in August 2025 at 49,221 miles with no defects recorded. This represents an improving maintenance trend compared to the significant failure noted in 2020. The most recent inspection indicates that all mechanical and structural components met the required standards, suggesting that the previously flagged issues have been addressed by the owner. The mileage data reveals a major discrepancy or shift in usage patterns. Between June 2019 and August 2020, the vehicle covered 60,680 miles in just fourteen months, averaging over 50,000 miles per annum. However, the recorded mileage of 49,221 miles in August 2025 directly contradicts the 206,751 miles recorded in August 2024. This suggests either an odometer error or a clerical entry mistake in the DVSA database. Such extremely low annual mileage for a fifteen-year-old Ducato often leads to dry rotting of rubber components and brake corrosion due to long periods of standing. A buyer must physically inspect the areas that caused issues during the 2020 failure to ensure the repairs remain effective. Specifically, check the nearside front outer drive shaft boot for tears or grease leakage, and verify the rear brake discs for further pitting or thinning. The record also flagged a corroded rear body component prone to injury, so a thorough inspection of the chassis integrity and step edges is necessary to ensure structural rust has not progressed beyond the repair. Given the inconsistent mileage, test the parking brake efficiency personally to ensure the cylinders are not seized from inactivity.
