2015 Ford Transit Connect 1.6L Diesel · ED54 ARP

The vehicle currently holds a valid roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT pass on 17 November 2025 at 170,325 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle consistently passes its inspections after immediate failures. The failure in November 2025 occurred just three miles prior to the successful test and resulted in no recorded defects, suggesting a minor non-mechanical issue such as a blown bulb or a sensor fault that was rectified instantly by the previous owner rather than a systemic mechanical failure. At 11 years old, this 2015 Ford Transit Connect has clocked an average 15,500 miles per year, which is significantly above the average for a light commercial vehicle. The data shows consistent, heavy usage, with 22,614 miles covered between November 2023 and November 2024, and another 22,596 miles recorded in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This high mileage suggests the vehicle has been used for constant work, which places accelerated stress on the drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking system. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and underbody, given the high-mileage profile of this Transit Connect. Check for excessive play in the control arms and shock absorbers, as these components often suffer from rubber degradation under heavy loads. While the MOT record shows no recurring structural advisories, the rapid accumulation of mileage means the brake discs and calipers are likely nearing the end of their service life and require close inspection for signs of thinning or uneven wear.
