2013 Iveco Daily 2.3L Diesel · YA62 HHF

The most recent MOT history for this 2013 IVECO Daily reveals a concerning pattern of instability rather than consistent roadworthiness. The vehicle failed its test on 22 December 2025—just one day before passing on 23 December—after a prior failure on 17 August 2024, despite passing in December 2024 and January 2023. The absence of recorded defects in any of these tests suggests either a lack of transparency in the MOT process or a vehicle that narrowly avoids failure due to minor, undocumented issues. This erratic trend implies either inconsistent maintenance or a vehicle approaching critical wear thresholds that have yet to manifest in the official record. Mileage data is insufficient to assess usage patterns, but the test intervals—particularly the gap between August 2024 and December 2024—raise questions about whether the vehicle was out of service or driven heavily between tests. The December 2025 tests occurred within 24 hours of each other, which is unusual and may indicate a rushed or incomplete inspection. Without mileage figures, it’s impossible to determine if the vehicle has been well-maintained or neglected, but the lack of progressive wear indicators in the MOT history is notable. Given the repeated failures without documented faults, a prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear components that often cause MOT failures. Focus on the suspension system—particularly the condition of coil springs, shock absorbers, and rubber bushes, as these frequently fail without visible corrosion. The braking system warrants scrutiny, including rear brake binding (a common issue in commercial vehicles) and the integrity of brake discs and calipers, which may have been overlooked in past tests. Structural integrity should also be checked, especially around the chassis and cab welds, for signs of fatigue or corrosion that could compromise safety. The absence of defects in the MOT record does not guarantee these areas are sound.
