2007 DAF Motor Home 4.5L Diesel · Y4 RRT

The vehicle shows a stable but aging maintenance profile, passing its most recent test on 3 June 2026 at 282,118 miles. While the vehicle remains roadworthy, the MOT history indicates a recurring trend of wear on the braking system and minor structural degradation. The presence of pitted and scored rear brake discs in both the May 2025 and June 2026 tests suggests that while these components have not yet reached a failure point, they are undergoing progressive deterioration. The mileage data presents a significant anomaly that requires careful scrutiny. The 2014 test recorded 495,925 miles, yet the subsequent tests from 2020 through 2026 show a drastically lower mileage, culminating in 282,118 miles in June 2026. This suggests either a significant error in the historical mileage recording or, more likely, a replacement engine or odometer reset. The recorded usage between 2022 and 2026 shows relatively low annual mileage compared to the high-use period seen in the earlier history. A prospective buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the fuel system and braking components. The tester flagged slight corrosion on the fuel tank in both 2025 and 2026, which indicates an ongoing issue that could lead to fuel contamination or structural failure if left unaddressed. The recurring advisories regarding pitted rear brake discs mean the discs and pads should be checked for thickness and surface integrity. Further attention should be directed toward the front steering assembly. The January 2022 test noted slight play in both the nearside and offside front king pins. Although no defects were recorded in the following years, the high total mileage of the chassis suggests that suspension bushes, steering linkages, and other heavy-duty components should be thoroughly examined for excessive wear or play.
