2015 Chausson Ducato 2.3L Diesel · KX15 AXD

The most recent MOT test on December 13, 2025, confirms this 2015 Fiat Ducato is currently roadworthy with no defects recorded at 29,204 miles. Over the past three annual tests, there has been a consistent pattern of clean passes, though the December 2023 failure at 23,816 miles—just 22 miles before the subsequent pass—stands out as an anomaly rather than a trend. The absence of advisories or recurring issues suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the lack of any recorded defects does not preclude hidden wear in high-stress components like suspension bushes, drivetrain joints, or brake caliper guides. The recorded mileage of 29,204 miles over approximately 11 years indicates an average of around 2,655 miles annually, which is unusually low for a commercial vehicle of this age. The gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests—where mileage jumped from 20,658 to 23,816 in just over a year—implies either a period of light use or extended storage. The subsequent slow accumulation to 26,526 miles by December 2024 and then 29,204 by July 2026 suggests minimal recent activity, which could mean deferred maintenance rather than consistent operation. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension components, particularly the rear axle bushes and coil springs, which are prone to fatigue over 11 years. The brakes, while not flagged, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has spent periods stationary. Exhaust emissions systems—particularly the DPF if equipped—should be verified for clogging, as older diesel vehicles often develop silent failures in this area. Structural integrity, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should be scrutinised for corrosion, as low mileage does not correlate with reduced rust risk in exposed areas.
