2013 Fiat Doblo 1.6L Diesel · YX13 APF

The 2026‑06‑03 MOT at 67,555 miles declared the 2013 Fiat Doblo roadworthy, except for an off‑side headlamp aim defect recorded under regulation 4.1.2 (c). No other failures were noted, indicating a largely stable maintenance record despite the recent headlamp issue. Over the past decade the vehicle has accumulated roughly 5,200 miles per year, a rate consistent with light use and long periods of standing, as shown by the sparse gaps between 2016 and 2017 (6,366 miles) and 2019 and 2020 (6,879 miles) while the overall mileage remains well below the typical wear profile for a 13‑year‑old car. Recurring brake disc wear, noted in 2022, 2025 and earlier years, together with front pad thickness falling below 1.5 mm in 2025, signals ongoing brake system stress that a buyer should verify by measuring disc run‑out, checking caliper movement and inspecting suspension bushes and coil springs for corrosion or binding. The 2017 MOT flagged an incomplete seat‑belt inspection due to a Motability scooter, so a physical check of the seat‑belt webbing and anchor points is advisable, along with a visual assessment of structural rust on the chassis, exhaust condition, and verification that the headlamp aim has been correctly adjusted after the recent failure.
