2015 FORD TRANSIT2.2L DIESEL

This 2015 Ford Transit has a high mileage profile for its age, averaging nearly 13,000 miles per year. This level of usage suggests a vehicle that has likely been used for consistent commercial work, which typically leads to accelerated wear on consumable components like brakes, tyres, and suspension. The most recent MOT from January 2026 shows the vehicle passed, but it highlights a recurring pattern of wear across all four brake discs. While these were noted as not being excessively worn, the history shows a persistent issue with the braking system. In 2023 and 2024, the MOTs flagged imbalanced brakes and requirements that were only just met, suggesting the braking system has struggled to maintain optimal condition over time. The vehicle's mechanical trend appears to be stable but leaning towards worsening in terms of component degradation. While the brake discs were "not excessively worn" in the latest test, the consistent presence of pitting, scoring, and imbalance issues over the last three years indicates that the braking components and potentially the calipers or hydraulics are reaching the end of their service life. The high mileage further reinforces the need to be wary of drivetrain and suspension wear. While the MOT history does not explicitly list major structural or engine failures, the frequent mentions of tyres being near the legal limit and various lighting/mirror issues suggest a maintenance style that focuses on passing the test rather than proactive upkeep. Before purchasing, you must prioritize a thorough inspection of the braking system, specifically checking for any pulling under braking or uneven pedal feel.
