1998 Iveco-Ford . 5.9L Diesel · R584 CUG

The Iveco-Ford passed its most recent MOT on 25 June 2025 at 74,588 miles with no defects recorded, giving it a current roadworthy status. The maintenance trend appears stable and resolving, as the vehicle cleared its last test cleanly after two earlier failures in 2025 and 2023 that also logged no defects. These non-defect failures suggest administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than escalating mechanical decay. Recorded mileage sits at 74,588 against a 1998 build, an average of roughly 2,664 miles per year. The gap between the 4 February 2021 failure at 64,432 miles and the 23 December 2023 failure at 64,640 miles shows only 208 miles covered in nearly three years, implying long periods of standing. From December 2023 to June 2025 the vehicle added 9,948 miles, a modest rise that fits light commercial use rather than fleet punishment. Because every failure and pass carried no recorded defects, the DVSA data gives no direct flag on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of chassis rails and body mounts for rust, given the low-use-but-aged profile and risk of moisture trapping during storage. The tester should confirm brake calipers are free and not binding after the long idle, and check exhaust emissions and tyre condition for perishing from standing.
