2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · NX16 ATY

The vehicle demonstrates an exceptionally stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT on 29 September 2025 at 24,059 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to September 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for a ten year old commercial vehicle, averaging roughly 2,406 miles per year. Between September 2021 and September 2025, the odometer increased from 18,133 to 24,059 miles. This gradual accumulation suggests the van has seen light duty or has spent significant periods stationary. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest clocking or sudden heavy use. While the MOT history is flawless, the low usage pattern introduces specific risks. A buyer should check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which can degrade over time regardless of mileage. Brake calipers should be checked for seizing or binding, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from stagnant brake fluid and corrosion in the sliding pins. Inspect the chassis and underbody for surface corrosion. Even with a clean MOT record, vehicles that stand for long periods in damp environments can develop structural rust that may not yet be severe enough to trigger a failure. A physical check of the engine oil and coolant condition is advised to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from internal sludge buildup due to infrequent oil changes.
