FORD TRANSIT2011 · 2.4L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 13 February 2026 at 88,239 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of passing tests without any recorded advisories, suggesting the vehicle is being kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2011 model, averaging roughly 5,883 miles per year. Between 26 October 2023 and 13 February 2026, the odometer moved from 83,462 to 88,239 miles. This indicates the vehicle has covered fewer than 5,000 miles in the last two and a half years. Such low usage often suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary, which can lead to different wear patterns than those seen in high-mileage workhorses. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade due to inactivity rather than wear. Check for perished rubber seals, flat spots on tyres, and evidence of brake disc corrosion or binding calipers. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the lack of recorded advisories over several years is unusual for a fifteen year old Transit. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and filter replacements occurred regardless of the low mileage. Inspect the chassis and underbody for structural corrosion. Low mileage does not protect a vehicle from rust, especially if it was stored in a damp environment. Ensure the engine reaches operating temperature quickly and check for any signs of coolant leaks or battery degradation resulting from long periods of standing.
