2018 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · LF68 ABK

The Fiat Ducato passed its most recent MOT on 2 September 2025 at 241,437 miles with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the supplied history reads as stable with no recurring mechanical advisories or failures on genuine roadworthiness grounds. The two failures logged at 241,417 miles on 30 August 2025 and at 195,523 miles on 2 September 2024 both show no defects recorded, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than worn components. A clean pass followed each failure within days. The recorded mileage climbed from 153,589 miles at the September 2023 test to 195,535 miles by September 2024, then to 241,437 miles by September 2025. That equates to roughly 41,900 miles in the last year, well above the lifetime average of about 30,180 miles per year for an eight year old van. High annual use of this order loads suspension bushes, driveshafts, clutch, and brake discs far harder than a lightly used vehicle. The sparse record shows only three test windows, so wear between tests is undocumented. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the mileage and age. Check coil springs, suspension arms, and brake calipers for binding or fatigue that a no-defect test might miss on a high-mileage commercial vehicle. Examine exhaust emissions and turbo health on the diesel unit, as prolonged motorway loading accelerates soot buildup. The repeated same-day fail-and-pass pattern with zero defects suggests the previous keeper used the van heavily but kept it test-compliant. Verify service history and cambelt interval before purchase, since the MOT record confirms roadworthiness only on the day and reveals nothing of internal drivetrain care.
