2017 Iveco Daily 2.3L Diesel · GC17 ABV

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a pass on 18 November 2025 at 69,529 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of recent improvement after a significant failure just five days prior. In that November 2025 test, the vehicle failed on critical points including a leaking fuel tank, abnormal brake movement, and poor parking brake efficiency. The fact that these issues were rectified within a week suggests the current owner took immediate action to bring the van up to legal standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between December 2023 and November 2024, the vehicle covered 536 miles, indicating a period of very low use. However, it accumulated 1,066 miles in the year leading up to the 2024-25 testing cycle. This low annual mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine but increases the risk of component perishability and fluid degradation if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer must perform a close inspection of the parking brake system, as this was a recurring failure point in both 2023 and 2025. The tester flagged inoperative brakes and low efficiency across multiple tests, suggesting the mechanical adjustment or cables may be prone to slipping. You should also verify the offside rear anti-roll bar linkage which was noted as worn in November 2024 to ensure the wear has not progressed significantly since that advisory. The fuel tank leak recorded in the November 2025 failure requires a thorough visual check to ensure the repair was permanent and that no further corrosion is affecting the chassis. Additionally, the nearside front seat belt webbing flagged in late 2023 should be checked to ensure the replacement part is secure. Given the age of the Iveco Daily, checking for structural integrity and corrosion around the suspension mounting points remains essential, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the state of the frame beyond the specific failures listed.
