FORD TRANSIT2013 · 2.2L DIESEL

The vehicle presents as a roadworthy asset, having maintained a stable maintenance record over the last three years. Following a single failure in February 2023 at 92,589 miles, the Transit has passed three consecutive tests without any recorded defects. The most recent inspection conducted in March 2026 at 106,690 miles confirms that the vehicle currently meets the minimum safety standards with no advisories or failures noted on record. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-used commercial vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,200 miles per annum. Between March 2024 and March 2026, the vehicle covered 9,453 miles, showing a steady and predictable usage rate rather than erratic accumulation. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme heavy-duty cycles that typically accelerate the degradation of components. The lack of advisories in the last three tests indicates that the previous owners have likely addressed minor wear items before they reached a MOT failure threshold. While the digital record is clean, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common failure points for a Transit of this era. Given the 106,000-mile mark, the inspector should verify the integrity of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often show signs of fatigue at this mileage. Close attention must be paid to chassis corrosion, particularly around the rear members and exhaust mounting points, as the MOT only identifies structural rust once it has become significant. Testing the brake system for binding calipers and checking the thickness of the discs will ensure the clean MOT history reflects the actual mechanical state of the vehicle.
