2016 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · JO11 ROY

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness record with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 11 July 2025 at 21,786 miles where the examiner recorded no defects and issued a pass. Prior annual examinations on 25 June 2024 at 20,373 miles, 28 June 2023 at 18,964 miles, 1 July 2022 at 17,121 miles, and 23 June 2021 at 14,597 miles each returned a fault-free pass. This uninterrupted sequence demonstrates consistent statutory compliance and no escalating mechanical concerns. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally low use for a decade-old car. The odometer advanced from 14,597 miles at the June 2021 test to 21,786 miles by July 2025, a total of 7,189 miles across four years, averaging roughly 1,800 miles annually. No abrupt accumulation or dormant gaps appear; the 2023 and 2024 readings show steady light progression. Such sparse yet clean data suggests the previous keeper limited the Fiat to short local journeys and adhered to testing deadlines without neglect. Despite the absence of recorded advisories, a buyer should commission an in-person inspection of age-sensitive components that a passing test may not expose. A 2016 vehicle with prolonged low mileage can develop dried suspension bushes, stiffened coil springs, or seized brake calipers from standing idle. The tester would not have flagged latent corrosion on structural members, yet sills, subframes, and suspension arms warrant close examination for rust pitting and structural integrity. Verify brake disc condition and caliper operation even though no binding was reported, as infrequent use promotes surface scoring and reduced efficiency. Inspect the exhaust system for internal condensate corrosion and check tyres for sidewall cracking attributable to age rather than tread wear. The documented history implies conscientious ownership, but physical scrutiny of these mechanical and structural elements remains necessary before purchase.
