Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2013 Iveco Stralis As440s46tx/p S A?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2013 Iveco Stralis As440s46tx/p S A?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2013 Iveco Stralis As440s46tx/p S A?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2013 Iveco Stralis As440s46tx/p S A?

Yes. The MOT history will not show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status. An HPI check covers these areas and should be part of any used car purchase.

No MOT data — worth knowing

Got a specific Iveco Stralis As440s46tx/p S A you're checking out?

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

This 2013 IVECO STRALIS is a significant reliability concern: only 50% pass first time, well below the UK average of 80%, and the median CarHunch score of 50 reflects a genuinely troublesome used truck. The good news is that dangerous defects are absent from this cohort, so safety isn't the issue—it's simply that these vehicles fail routine MOT checks more often than comparable models.

These are working trucks with serious mileage: the median sits at 735,714 km, which explains why they're harder to pass, though the low average of 0.06 failures per vehicle suggests problems, when they occur, are often minor. If you're considering one of these, get a pre-purchase inspection from a heavy vehicle specialist, because the 50% first-time pass rate means you're buying into a pattern of MOT attention rather than a straightforward, trouble-free asset.

MOT statistics not available

We have 159 2013 Iveco Stralis As440s46tx/p S A 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
