2018 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · LF68 AEC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 14 May 2025 at 136,619 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage is high for an eight year old vehicle, averaging roughly 17,077 miles per year. A significant jump in usage occurred between 9 August 2023 and 26 July 2024, where the odometer rose from 117,728 to 134,589 miles. This period of intense use did not result in any recorded mechanical failures or advisories, which indicates the drivetrain and chassis have handled the increased load well. A single failure on 22 September 2022 at 115,197 miles was resolved within twenty four hours, though the record lists no specific defects for that failure. The absence of recurring advisories regarding brake discs, suspension bushes, or corrosion is unusual for a high mileage Ducato. This suggests the previous owner likely replaced worn consumables before the annual tests to ensure a first time pass. A physical inspection should focus on the components most susceptible to high mileage that the MOT may not fully capture. Check the condition of the clutch and the service history of the timing belt, as these are critical wear items. Inspect the chassis and underbody for surface rust, particularly in the wheel arches and sills, to ensure the lack of MOT advisories reflects actual structural integrity rather than a lenient testing process.
