2007 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · RK07 AAY

The vehicle is currently road‑worthy, having passed the 23 July 2026 MOT at 41,291 miles with no recorded defects. A failure recorded three days earlier on 20 July 2026 for a fractured off‑side rear leaf‑spring main leaf was remedied before the subsequent test, indicating that the most recent maintenance has addressed the critical fault. Earlier failures have centred on tyre perishing, brake binding and limited corrosion, but the pattern of prompt repairs suggests a stabilising trend rather than a worsening one. Mileage has risen from 27,056 miles in May 2016 to 41,291 miles in July 2026, an average of roughly 2,200 miles per year – markedly lower than typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The incremental increases between tests are modest (e.g., 39,858 miles in June 2024 to 40,537 miles in June 2025) and show no sudden spikes that would imply heavy short‑term loading. The low‑mileage profile points to relatively light duty, which may have limited wear on major drivetrain components. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the rear suspension, confirming that the repaired leaf‑spring is free of cracks and that mounting bushes show no excess play. All rear and front tyres must be inspected for cracking, perishing or uneven wear, as the MOT record flags recurring tyre damage on both axles. Brake service should be verified, especially the near‑side front service brake that previously exhibited excessive binding and the front brake imbalance noted in 2020. The front wing support area that was recorded as significantly corroded in June 2023 warrants a close visual check for any progression of rust that could affect structural rigidity. Finally, confirm that the engine management light and exhaust emissions are clear, and that the windscreen wiper, direction indicator and outline marker lamp are operational, as these items have been flagged in past failures.
