2010 Iveco ML140E22 5.9L Diesel · GN10 DPF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, though the maintenance history reveals a history of structural and safety concerns. The most recent test in July 2022 at 487,577 miles passed with no recorded defects, suggesting a period of stability following previous failures. However, the overall trend is inconsistent, as the vehicle has faced critical structural failures and basic safety equipment lapses. Given that the current date is June 2026, the MOT is nearly four years out of date, raising significant concerns regarding its current mechanical condition. The mileage profile is exceptionally high, averaging over 30,000 miles per year across its sixteen-year life. Between the 2019 and June 2021 tests, the vehicle covered 62,372 miles in just two years, indicating heavy commercial use. This rapid rate of accumulation places immense strain on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system. The zero-mile entry on the June 2021 test likely reflects an administrative error or a component replacement, but the jump of nearly 90,000 miles confirms high-intensity usage between recorded intervals. A buyer must prioritise a thorough structural inspection of the load-bearing members. The 2019 failure at 416,344 miles identified a seriously weakened body due to corrosion and cracking, which is a terminal risk for a vehicle of this age if the repairs were not professionally executed and reinforced. Furthermore, the 2021 failure for a missing battery clamp and an absent centre seat belt buckle suggests a period where basic preventative safety maintenance was neglected. Given the high mileage and the long lapse since the last inspection, a professional check of the suspension bushes, chassis, and brake line integrity is essential to ensure the vehicle has not suffered accelerated fatigue.
