2016 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · NX16 APY

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-06-04 at 39,871 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2023 to 2024 also passed without issues, though an apparent duplication of a 2024-05-28 test shows conflicting pass/fail statuses at the same mileage. This inconsistency may reflect administrative error, but the absence of recorded defects in valid entries suggests no critical mechanical failures. The vehicle’s roadworthiness appears satisfactory, with no urgent concerns raised in the official records. The mileage of 39,871 miles over 10 years equates to approximately 3,987 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for this age group. This low usage could imply infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which might affect components like the battery, fluids, and engine longevity. MOT tests were conducted at roughly annual intervals, with no gaps exceeding 14 months, suggesting consistent adherence to legal requirements. However, the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into gradual wear or minor issues. A buyer should physically inspect the vehicle for signs of corrosion, particularly in areas prone to rust such as underbody panels and wheel arches, given the low mileage’s potential for stagnant fluid systems. Suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, may require scrutiny for uneven wear, as low-mileage vehicles can develop stiffness or degradation from inactivity. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be checked for binding or uneven pad wear, as these issues may not always trigger MOT failures. The absence of recorded faults is reassuring but does not eliminate the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
