FORD TRANSIT2008 · 2.4L DIESEL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in April 2026 with 191,247 miles. The maintenance trend is currently improving, as the vehicle moved from failures in 2024 and 2025 to a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded in the latest test. This recent result indicates that the previous owner successfully addressed and rectified whatever mechanical or structural issues had previously prevented the vehicle from meeting standards. At 191,247 miles over 18 years, this Transit has averaged approximately 10,625 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical usage patterns for a commercial vehicle of this age. The mileage accumulation appears consistent, with roughly 9,000 miles covered between April 2024 and March 2025, and another 11,000 miles covered between March 2025 and April 2026. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of inactivity which often cause seal degradation or corrosion. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and suspension components, as high-mileage Transits are prone to significant corrosion in mounting points. While the latest MOT report is clean, the previous failures in 2024 and 2025 suggest that components reached the end of their service life recently. Check for signs of wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and the condition of the brake discs to ensure the recent clean pass reflects well-maintained hardware rather than a temporary fix.
