2015 FORD TOURNEO CONNECT1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean mechanical record over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in July 2023 at 130,296 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle met all safety and emissions standards at that time. This follows a period of consistent passing since 2020, suggesting that the previous owners maintained the necessary components to avoid recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,845 miles per annum. There is a notable increase in usage between June 2022 and July 2023, where the vehicle covered over 27,000 miles in just thirteen months. This period of high intensity places significant demand on wear and tear components such as suspension bushes, shocks, and brake hardware. However, the lack of advisories in the 2023 test suggests the vehicle handled this high-mileage interval without immediate signs of structural degradation or mechanical fatigue. The single failure in June 2022 at 102,931 miles was related to headlamp alignment and an inoperative levelling device. While these are non-structural lighting faults, they indicate a lapse in attention to electrical trim or housing adjustments at that time. A buyer should verify that the headlamp levelling still functions correctly to ensure the repair was permanent. Given the high mileage, a physical inspection should focus on the condition of the underbody for corrosion and the state of the brake discs and suspension arm bushings, as these are the most common areas of wear for a Ford of this age and mileage.
