Got a specific Leyland Daf Fad 85.300 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 1996 Leyland DAF FAD 85.300 is essentially unusable as a road vehicle—a first-time pass rate of just 0.6% versus the UK average of 80% tells you these are almost universally failing MOT. The handful of vehicles in this dataset (131 total) that do pass are extreme exceptions, and with zero recorded dangerous defects across the cohort, the failures are likely cumulative wear items rather than safety-critical issues.
The median mileage of 1,088 miles suggests most of these vehicles have been off the road for decades or are long-term static displays, which explains both the universal failure rate and the complete absence of advisories—there's simply nothing left to advise on. If you're considering one, treat it as a restoration or heritage project: assume a complete mechanical rebuild is necessary before any road use is even remotely possible.
We have 131 1996 Leyland Daf Fad 85.300 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
