2004 Daf Trucks Fatcf75.310

CarHunch analysed 264 real MOT records for the 2004 Daf Trucks Fatcf75.310. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2004 DAF CF75 truck is in dire condition by any standard — only 3.4% pass their MOT first time, compared to the UK average of 80%, and these aren't minor niggles. With a median mileage of 306,295 miles and an average of 587,961 miles, these are heavily worked vehicles that have endured substantial commercial use over nearly two decades.

At this age and mileage, expect serious repair costs ahead; the 0.05 average failures per vehicle masks the reality that most of these trucks are simply worn out and barely roadworthy. If you're considering one, factor in a complete mechanical overhaul before use and budget for ongoing commercial-grade maintenance — this is a specialist purchase only for operators with proper workshop facilities.

What to check before buying a 2004 Daf Trucks Fatcf75.310

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.
