Daf Trucks Fa 55.180 (2000)
2000 Daf Trucks Fa 55.180
CarHunch is tracking 257 2000 Daf Trucks Fa 55.180 vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 2000 DAF FA 55.180 is a commercial truck, not a car, and its 50% first-time pass rate reflects the demanding nature of HGV testing rather than poor reliability—it sits well below the UK's 80% car average, but that comparison isn't apples-to-apples. No vehicles in this cohort of 257 trucks have ever recorded a dangerous defect, which is genuinely reassuring for a 24-year-old heavy-duty vehicle.
The median mileage of 441,629 km tells you these are well-used working trucks, yet they average only 0.02 failures per test and zero advisories, suggesting the ones still in service have been maintained properly. If you're buying one, check its full service history and get a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified HGV mechanic, because the pass rate gap likely reflects test complexity rather than hidden structural problems.
We have 257 2000 Daf Trucks Fa 55.180 vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 2000 Daf Trucks Fa 55.180
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
