2017 Ducati X Diavel 1.3L Petrol · HV67 AEZ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-09 at 7,406 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the history reveals inconsistent results: a failure in 2024-09-17 and 2023-05-23, both at similar mileages, with no defects noted. These failures suggest potential issues with minor components or procedural oversights, though the lack of recorded defects implies no critical mechanical or structural faults. The recent pass aligns with the vehicle’s low mileage, which may reflect infrequent use rather than active neglect. The recorded mileage of 7,406 miles over nine years equates to an average of 823 miles annually, significantly below typical usage for a 2017 model. This pattern raises questions about storage conditions, as prolonged inactivity can accelerate wear on rubber components, suspension bushes, and brake systems. Notably, the mileage remained static between 2024-09-17 and 2024-10-31, a two-week gap, which may indicate data entry errors or extended periods without operation. The sparse MOT history, with tests spaced irregularly, limits insight into long-term maintenance trends. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of prolonged inactivity, such as dry rot on tyres, corrosion on suspension components, or stiffness in brake calipers. The absence of recorded advisories does not preclude hidden issues, particularly in areas like exhaust emissions or structural integrity, which may not surface in routine MOT checks. Pay close attention to the brake discs for uneven wear and the suspension for binding or excessive play, as low mileage can mask wear in these systems. The vehicle’s maintenance record lacks evidence of proactive servicing, warranting a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
