2014 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · AO64 AEC

The 2014 Ford Transit holds a current MOT pass dated 20 November 2025 at 79,766 miles with no recorded defects, confirming it is roadworthy at the time of testing. The maintenance trend shows a recovery after a failure on 12 November 2024 at 62,516 miles, despite the absence of specific defect entries, indicating the issue was addressed before the subsequent retest. Mileage accumulation has been aggressive, rising from 26,393 miles in November 2022 to 79,766 miles by November 2025—a gain of roughly 17,000 miles each year. This rate exceeds the typical 6,600‑mile annual average for a twelve‑year‑old vehicle, suggesting higher usage and accelerated wear on consumables and mechanical components. The test schedule remains consistent, with annual inspections each November, though the duplicate entries on 12 November 2024 hint at a retest following the failure. With the 2024 failure and the elevated mileage, a buyer should prioritise a hands‑on inspection of the braking system—checking disc thickness, caliper operation, and pad wear—suspension components such as bushings and coil springs for looseness or corrosion, and the exhaust and under‑body for rust given the age and mileage. Tyre tread depth and condition are also critical, as high annual mileage will have taxed the rubber. A thorough walk‑around will reveal any residual issues that the MOT may have missed.
