2014 Fiat Doblo 1.6L Diesel · WM63 WVS

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, though the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in October 2025 at 77,769 miles resulted in a pass immediately following a failure. That previous failure identified multiple lighting defects across the vehicle and a severely deteriorated offside front outer drive shaft CV boot. While these issues were rectified quickly, the recurring nature of minor failures suggests that the owner only addresses faults when necessitated by the MOT test. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use commercial vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. Between the October 2023 test at 53,227 miles and the October 2024 test at 64,700 miles, the vehicle covered 11,473 miles, which is significantly higher than its annual average. However, the low overall mileage over twelve years can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals, which aligns with the perished CV boot found during recent inspections. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension and drivetrain to ensure the replacement CV boot is not already leaking, as persistent grease loss can lead to rapid joint failure. The history of a twisted nearside front brake hose in 2024 suggests poor assembly quality or mechanical alignment issues that warrant a physical check. Additionally, the repeated advisories regarding uneven tyre wear in 2023 and 2024 indicate a likely misalignment in geometry or worn suspension bushes that require professional attention to prevent further premature tyre replacement.
