The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.

UK

This 2006 DAF CF85.430 is a commercial truck, and its 1.8% first-time pass rate reflects the reality of heavy-duty fleet vehicles rather than personal cars—these are workhorses that rack up serious mileage and rarely breeze through MOT without needing attention. The median mileage of 695,473 miles is extreme but entirely normal for a truck of this age and class, and the near-zero dangerous defect rate (0.0%) is genuinely reassuring for safety-critical components.

What matters here is not comparison to the 80% car average, but the pattern within the truck's own operating life: vehicles are averaging just 0.02 failures and zero advisories per test, suggesting that when these trucks do fail, it's usually something straightforward to fix rather than systemic decay. If you're evaluating one for purchase, focus on full service history and the specific failure codes from recent tests—a low-mileage example (under 500,000 miles) would be the real prize.

MOT statistics not available

We have 811 2006 Daf Trucks Ftg Cf85.430 vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

  • Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
  • Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
  • MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
  • Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
