2006 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · WA06 MGO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a pattern of deferred consumable repairs related to low usage. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 23,407 miles passed, it flagged perishing and cracking across all four tyres. This follows a recurring issue with tyre degradation in 2024 and 2023, indicating that the rubber components are failing due to age rather than tread wear. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old Ducato, with only 23,407 miles recorded. This represents an average of approximately 1,170 miles per year. Between October 2024 and October 2025, the vehicle covered merely 31 miles. Such extremely low usage frequency explains the persistent degradation of rubber-based components and the binding brake, as the vehicle likely sits for long periods, allowing for surface corrosion and seal shrinkage. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and mechanical seals. The October 2022 failure at 22,309 miles identified corrosion on the offside front suspension mounting area and the lower radiator support panel. Although these were not considered excessive at the time, structural rust on low-mile vehicles can accelerate if moisture. Additionally, the nearside front wheel bearing reported rough in 2022 and the binding rear service brake noted in 2023 should be re-checked to ensure they have not seized or deteriorated further during periods of inactivity.
