AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This vehicle is currently roadworthy and shows a stable maintenance trend. It passed its most recent MOT on 3 March 2026 at 147,044 miles with no defects recorded. While the record shows failures on 25 February 2026 and 12 February 2025, the lack of specific defect data suggests these were likely administrative or minor issues resolved immediately to achieve a pass on the same or following day. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle. Between 23 February 2024 and 3 March 2026, the odometer increased from 138,881 to 147,044 miles. This represents a steady accumulation of roughly 8,163 miles over two years, confirming the van has remained in active use rather than sitting idle. The absence of advisories across the last three years is unusual for a 14 year old Transit. A buyer should remain vigilant for common age related wear that the MOT tester may have overlooked or that has developed since March. Focus a physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills for corrosion, as well as the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. Check for any signs of oil leaks or drivetrain noise, given the 147,044 mile total. While the MOT history is clean, the lack of recorded wear on consumables like brake discs or tyres suggests the owner may have performed maintenance outside of the test cycle. Verify these service intervals through physical invoices to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean MOT record.
