2016 FORD TRANSIT CONNECT1.6L Diesel

The 13 February 2026 MOT at 41,752 miles passed with no defects, confirming the Transit Connect is presently roadworthy and showing a stable maintenance trend after the 2023‑11‑08 failure at 33,000 miles was corrected. No further advisories were recorded, indicating that the recent service addressed the earlier brake‑imbalance issue. The vehicle is a 2016 model now ten years old and has recorded 41,752 miles, averaging about 4,200 miles per year, which is low for its age. The interval from the 2023‑11‑08 test (33,004 miles) to the 2026‑02‑13 test (41,752 miles) adds roughly 8,750 miles over 2.5 years, suggesting moderate use rather than long periods of standing. Earlier intervals show minimal annual mileage growth. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, verify tyre tread depth beyond the recorded limits, and check wiper blade condition. The history also reveals repeated tyre wear and brake imbalance, indicating that structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches should be inspected.
