2020 Fiat Ducato 35 Maxi Multijet II 2.3L Diesel · YY69 XWD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on June 3, 2026 at 94,172 miles. However, the immediate history reveals a significant lapse in maintenance standards evidenced by a comprehensive failure just two weeks prior on May 19, 2026. While the vehicle passed the most recent test, the high volume of defects in the previous inspection—ranging from lighting and wipers to critical braking and tyre issues—suggests a reactive approach to vehicle upkeep rather than proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is high for a six-year-old van, averaging approximately 15,700 miles per year. There is a notable surge in usage between January 2024 (88,950 miles) and May 2026 (94,171 miles), where the vehicle covered over 5,000 miles in just fourteen months. This rapid accumulation is consistent with the accelerated wear observed on heavy-duty components, which explains the state of the braking system and recorded during the 2026 failure. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system. The May 2026 failure flagged all four brake discs as pitted and scored, alongside a binding offside rear service brake and poor parking brake efficiency. Even if these were addressed before the June pass, the buyer should check for uneven pad wear and caliper slider operation. Additionally, the record of an inadequate load index on the nearside rear tyre indicates the previous owner may have used unsuitable equipment for the vehicle's weight capacity, necessitating a check of all current tyre specifications and suspension integrity.
