2010 Iveco Daily 35S13 LWB 2.3L Diesel · SN10 EPP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend in structural degradation and suspension wear. While the most recent test in November 2023 at 201,714 miles passed, it carried numerous critical advisories regarding advanced corrosion on the inner integral body structures. The transition from a structural failure in September 2021 to a pass in 2023 suggests that while major repairs were addressed, the underlying integrity of the chassis is under constant environmental attack. At 201,714 miles, this sixteen-year-old Iveco Daily has covered an average of approximately 12,600 miles per year. The record shows consistent heavy use, with nearly 9,600 miles logged between the November 2022 and November 2023 tests. However, the vehicle has not undergone an MOT since November 18, 2023. Given the high mileage and age of the vehicle, the lack of a test for the last two years increases the risk that previously flagged corrosion and mechanical issues have progressed beyond the last recorded parameters. A buyer must prioritise a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and mounting points. The history consistently flags corrosion on the front subframe, inner integral structures, and seat belt anchorages. Specifically, the 2021 failure for reduced structural strength in the floor and inner sills indicates a history of significant rust. Furthermore, the rear leaf spring bushes, shackle pins, and anchor pins were at or near fail limits across 2022 and 2023, suggesting the entire suspension assembly is nearing the end of life. The braking system also requires close attention. The tester noted a nearside front binding caliper in 2023, following previous reports of worn anti-slip and corroded back plates. Combined with the documented oil leak noted in 2022 and recurring exhaust leaks, the vehicle shows signs of reactive rather than preventative maintenance. Any prospective purchaser should verify that the structural repairs made after 2021 are sound and that the deteriorating suspension components are not prone to immediate failure.
