2012 Iveco Daily 2.3L Diesel · PO12 AYZ

The vehicle shows a worsening maintenance trend with a significant lack of recent data, as the last recorded test occurred on September 4, 2023. At 153,948 miles, the tester flagged several concerning issues including a steering rack inner joint with play, a defective parking brake lever, and a corroded brake pipe that had been covered in grease. These findings suggest a reactive approach to maintenance rather than a preventative one. The mileage is typical for a 14 year old commercial vehicle, averaging roughly 10,996 miles per year. The record shows a steady climb from 101,236 miles in March 2015 to the final entry of 153,948 miles in September 2023. However, the vehicle has not seen an MOT test in nearly three years relative to the current date of August 2026, leaving its current roadworthiness entirely unknown. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the chassis and braking system. The history reveals a recurring struggle with oil leaks, moving from an excessive leak in June 2021 to a non-excessive leak in September 2023. The mention of grease-covered brake pipes is a red flag for hidden corrosion. The suspension has also been a persistent weak point, with failures and advisories regarding leaf spring shackle pins, anti-roll bar bushes, and suspension arm ball joints dating back to 2017. Particular attention should be paid to the steering rack and parking brake, both of which were flagged in the final test. The pattern of failing on basic consumables like tyre tread and wiper blades in August 2022 suggests the previous owner frequently neglected routine checks. Given the age and the specific faults recorded, a full mechanical audit of the drivetrain and structural integrity is essential.
