2016 DAF Trucks CF 220 FA 6.7L Diesel · HX66 ODT

The vehicle maintains a generally roadworthy status, passing its most recent inspection on March 11 2026 at 780,440 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has secured consecutive passes over the last four years. However, the March 2026 test introduced a new advisory regarding an oil leak at the rear of the engine area, indicating the onset of a seal degradation issue that requires monitoring to prevent it from becoming a mechanical failure or environmental hazard. The mileage profile is exceptionally high for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 78,000 miles per year. Between February 2024 and March 2026, the truck covered 50,814 miles in just over fourteen months, representing a heavy duty cycle that far exceeds typical commercial usage for this age. This intensive operation suggests consistent long-distance haulage work, which places significant cumulative stress on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system. The lack of recorded defects between 2022 and 2025 indicates that despite the high mileage, the vehicle was maintained to a functional standard. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the rear engine area to assess the severity of the oil leak flagged in the latest test. Given the extreme mileage, a thorough check of the structural integrity for corrosion and the condition of the suspension bushes and dampers is essential, as these components undergo accelerated fatigue. While the 2023 failure regarding dirty reflectors and markings was a minor maintenance oversight, the overall history suggests a vehicle that has been worked hard and is now entering a phase where high-wear mechanical components will require more frequent attention.
