2016 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · MX16 BYK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 27 June 2025 at 9,457 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history indicates a pattern of neglect regarding stationary consumable components. While the 2025 test was clean, previous records show that the vehicle has suffered from long periods of inactivity rather than consistent mechanical wear. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old van, averaging approximately 946 miles per year. There are significant gaps in usage between April 2022 and April 2024, where the vehicle covered only 1,325 miles over two years. This low-frequency use explains the recurring issues with age-related degradation, as the vehicle recorded perished tyres in both 2022 at 8,092 miles and again in 2024, despite having minimal tread depth. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the condition of all rubber-based components. The tester previously flagged perished tyres in 2022 and broken exhaust rubber hangers in 2024, suggesting that the materials are cracking and failing due to time rather than distance travelled. You should specifically inspect the brake discs for corrosion and seized calipers, as vehicles that sit for long periods are prone to internal rusting of the braking system. The structural integrity of the chassis should be checked for surface corrosion, as the record does not yet flag any rust, but moisture-related decay is a common risk for low-mileage Ducatos.
