2018 Fiat Ducato 2.3L Diesel · YN18 ARX

The March 24 2026 MOT at 10,082 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record is stable. All previous tests from May 19 2023 through February 27 2026 also recorded no defects, indicating consistent upkeep. The mileage has risen steadily from 8,342 miles in the May 19 2023 test to 10,082 miles in the March 2026 test, a gain of 1,740 miles over 2 years and 10 months, or roughly 1,585 miles per year, which aligns with normal usage for a vehicle of this age and shows no abrupt spikes. The interval between the June 26 2024 test (9,243 miles) and the June 16 2025 test (9,793 miles) added 550 miles in a year, while the subsequent rise to 10,044 miles in February 2026 contributed 251 miles in eight months, reflecting incremental accumulation rather than long periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brakes are not binding, and inspect the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, as these components are common wear points on high‑mileage commercial vans despite the clean MOT history. Particular attention to structural rust, exhaust emissions, and the condition of the chassis is advisable, since the absence of recorded defects does not guarantee the absence of concealed corrosion or component fatigue. Given the absence of recorded defects, the primary risk lies in concealed corrosion or component fatigue, so a thorough visual and functional inspection of the chassis, exhaust system, and drivetrain is advisable before purchase.
