2013 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · J90 WDL

The Ford Transit presents a current roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the pass recorded on 3 January 2025 at 248,374 miles showing no defects. The vehicle cleared its most recent test without advisories, and the preceding clean pass on 12 July 2023 at 237,187 miles indicates no worsening mechanical condition across the recorded interval. Two failed tests on 3 January 2025 (248,373 miles) and 11 July 2023 (237,186 miles) were logged with no defects recorded, implying administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than latent faults. At roughly 13 years old the van carries 248,374 miles, an average of about 19,106 miles per year, which is high for a 2013 light commercial. The odometer moved from 229,500 miles at the 28 June 2022 pass to 237,187 miles by July 2023, then to 248,374 miles by January 2025, reflecting steady annual use near the modelled rate with no standing periods or mileage spikes. The MOT history is sparse and clean, with only the two zero-defect failures breaking an otherwise unbroken pass sequence. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the mileage, as high annual load accelerates consumable and structural wear not captured by a defect-free test. Examine subframe and body mounts for corrosion and check exhaust emissions under load, since the records omit advisories that a 248,000-mile Transit commonly accrues. The repeated same-day fail-then-pass pattern suggests the previous keeper addressed paperwork promptly, but offers no evidence of deferred mechanical neglect.
