FORD TRANSIT2013 · 2.2L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 21 June 2025 at 140,166 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by rapid passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the Transit failed the test just days before a successful re-test. This suggests that the previous owner was performing reactive repairs specifically to meet the annual testing requirements rather than conducting proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is remarkably consistent for a thirteen-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 10,800 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation of roughly 13,000 miles between May 2023 and June 2024, and another nearly 13,000 miles between June 2024 and June 2025. This regular usage indicates the vehicle has likely been used for consistent local or motorway work, which typically results in even wear on drivetrain components and suspension systems compared to vehicles that sit stationary. While the recent passes show no recorded defects, the recurring failures in June 2024 and 2025 necessitate a close physical inspection of components prone to sudden wear. A buyer should specifically examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake lines, as these are common points of failure on older Transits. Given the age and mileage, a thorough check of the structural integrity for corrosion on the sills and mounting members is essential to ensure that hidden rust has not developed between tests, which remains undetected until the next inspection.
