2021 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · FV70 YGU

The latest MOT, taken on 19 January 2026 at 125,598 miles, was a pass. The only defect recorded was an oil leak, described as “not excessive” and located around the turbo and high‑pressure fuel pump. The same oil‑leak issue was noted in the 2024 and 2025 MOTs, but it has not escalated into a major failure, and no other faults were logged in the 2025 pass. The 2024 failure was due to the same oil leak plus two non‑working rear marker lamps, which were apparently repaired before the subsequent pass. Overall, the vehicle’s safety‑related issues appear stable rather than worsening. The recurring oil leak is a maintenance concern that should be monitored, but it has not grown in severity over the past two years. No other mechanical or safety defects appear in the record. At 125,598 miles on a 5‑year‑old Fiat Ducato, the mileage is high—about 25,000 miles per year. This suggests the vehicle has been used heavily, which can accelerate wear on consumables such as brakes, tyres, suspension components, and the engine’s internal parts. The high mileage may also mean that some components are closer to their expected service intervals.
