2010 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · EF60 AAZ

The 2010 Ford Transit presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 26 March 2025 at 132,994 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior tests show the same clean outcome, indicating no escalating mechanical concerns across the observed period. The single failure on 2 April 2024 at 123,858 miles was rectified the following day with a pass at identical mileage and no defects logged, suggesting an administrative or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than a substantive fault. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical rate for a sixteen-year-old van, averaging roughly 8,300 miles per year against the 132,994 miles recorded. The gap between the 23 March 2022 test at 115,605 miles and the 14 March 2023 test at 117,986 miles shows only 2,381 miles covered, implying a period of light use or standing. From March 2023 to April 2024 the van added 5,872 miles, then 9,136 miles to the March 2025 test. The DVSA history is sparse, with no advisories or defects ever flagged across the five entries, so wear patterns cannot be inferred from prior tester notes. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and the unrecorded condition of consumables between tests. Structural integrity and underbody corrosion warrant close examination, as the MOT record never listed rust advisories despite the Transit's vulnerability to chassis rot in this generation. The clean pass sheet offers no evidence of neglect, but the absence of advisories on a 132,994-mile commercial vehicle points to either diligent upkeep or testers omitting wear commentary, both of which justify independent verification before purchase.
