FORD TRANSIT2006 · 2.4L Diesel

The 2006 Ford Transit passed its most recent MOT on 2025-08-13 at 127,141 miles, with no defects recorded. This follows a 2024-08-02 pass at 125,100 miles and a 2024-07-11 failure at 125,093 miles, though the latter recorded no defects. The absence of recorded issues in the latest test suggests a stable maintenance trend, though the 2024 failure—despite no defects—raises questions about potential minor non-compliances. The vehicle’s consistent MOT history since 2023 indicates no significant mechanical deterioration, but the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into underlying conditions. The vehicle’s mileage of 127,141 miles over 20 years aligns with an average of 6,357 miles annually, a typical figure for its age. The 2023-05-23 MOTs—both pass and fail—occurred within days of each other, with mileages of 118,060 and 118,057, suggesting minimal usage during that period. Subsequent tests show gradual increases, with 7,040 miles logged between 2023 and 2024, followed by 2,041 miles in 2024–2025. This pattern implies sporadic use, which could contribute to component stagnation or corrosion, though no such issues were flagged in the records. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as age-related fatigue is common in 20-year-old vehicles. The braking system, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny for binding or uneven wear, as these often develop over time. Structural integrity should also be assessed for rust, especially in underbody areas, given the vehicle’s age and potential exposure to road salt. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the absence of detailed defect descriptions means a physical inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’sTrue condition.
