2009 Fiat Ducato 2.2L Diesel · SN59 ACX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a persistent failure to address minor suspension defects. In the most recent test on March 2026 at 29,498 miles, the vehicle passed despite recurring slight play in both the nearside and offside rear anti-roll bar linkage ball joints. This specific issue has been noted as an adviser for three consecutive years, indicating that while the components have not yet reached failure criteria, they have not been replaced by the current owner. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,735 miles per year. Between March 2024 and March 2026, the van covered only 2,298 miles, suggesting it is used either for very short-distance trips or remains stationary for long periods. While this low annual mileage generally implies less wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and fluid integrity due to age-related decay rather than mechanical friction. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension assembly, specifically targeting the anti-roll bar linkages which have been flagged since 2023. The failure in March 2023 due to an heavily worn offside front way arm ball joint shows that components were previously addressed, but the subsequent neglect of the rear links is notable. Given the low mileage and age, it is also vital to check for seized brake calipers and signs of structural corrosion on the chassis, as these are common issues for vehicles that are not driven frequently.
