2012 FORD TRANSIT2.2L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 2 June 2025 at 234,216 miles. The record shows a remarkably clean history with no recorded defects or advisories across the last four years of testing. A failure on the same day as the most recent pass suggests a minor administrative or quick-fix issue rather than a significant mechanical failure, as no specific defects were listed for either entry. The mileage is high for a 2012 model, averaging roughly 16,730 miles per year. The accumulation has remained consistent over the recorded period, rising from 221,381 miles on 1 June 2022 to 234,216 miles by June 2025. This represents a steady usage pattern of approximately 4,300 miles per year over the last three years, which is significantly lower than the vehicle's lifetime average. Despite the clean MOT record, the high total mileage necessitates a physical inspection of high-wear components. A buyer should specifically check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these often degrade regardless of MOT outcomes on high-mileage Transits. The absence of advisories is positive, but the age and mileage make the chassis and underbody prone to corrosion that may not have reached a failure threshold yet. Priority should be given to checking the brake discs for thinning and the drivetrain for excessive play. While the DVSA records show no failures, the sheer volume of miles suggests that major service items like the timing belt or water pump may be due for replacement if not documented in the service history. Focus on the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches to ensure no hidden rust is masking the clean test history.
