2015 Iveco Daily 2.3L Diesel · GK15 UKD

The most recent MOT, conducted on 16 June 2025 at 179,512 miles, resulted in a pass, meaning the vehicle met the minimum roadworthiness threshold at that time. However, the maintenance trend is not stable. It shows a persistent pattern of wear-related advisories that the tester flagged but did not deem critical enough for failure. The recurrence of nearside and offside front inner tyre wear across multiple years, combined with repeated anti-roll bar linkage and brake pad advisories, suggests a vehicle that has been run hard and maintained reactively rather than proactively. This pattern is a concern for a commercial vehicle of this age and mileage. The mileage accumulation is notably high and consistent, averaging roughly 16,319 miles per year. The record shows a clear, rapid climb from 132,125 miles in June 2021 to 179,512 miles by June 2025, an increase of 47,387 miles in four years. This is not light use. The MOT history is sparse, with only annual entries, but the mileage jumps between tests confirm sustained, heavy commercial workload. There are no gaps suggesting long periods of inactivity, meaning the drivetrain, suspension, and brakes have endured continuous, high-stress use. A buyer must inspect the front suspension and steering components with extreme care. The repeated advisories for inner tyre wear on both nearside and offside fronts point to potential issues with wheel alignment, worn tracking, or degraded suspension bushes and ball joints. The recurring anti-roll bar linkage and bush wear noted in 2022 and 2023 further supports the likelihood of a tired front end. Given the vehicle's role, checking for any play in the steering rack and drop links is essential. The braking system requires close examination. Advisories for thin brake pads at both the front in 2021 and the rear in 2023, on a vehicle covering such high mileage, indicate heavy use. A physical inspection should assess the condition of the brake discs for scoring or lipping and check for any binding calipers, which are common on vehicles used for frequent stop-start work. The consistent tyre wear also demands a thorough check of the wheel bearings and suspension geometry before any purchase is considered.
