2012 Ford Transit 125 T260 Trend FWD 2.2L Diesel · VHZ 4791

The vehicle presents a broadly roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 31 January 2026 at 109,883 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the Transit failed the test on 29 October 2025 at 107,982 miles, yet the failure carried no listed defects, indicating an administrative or unrecorded non-mechanical cause rather than a component fault. Across the wider history from the 4 May 2022 pass at 83,769 miles through to 2026, every completed test either passed cleanly or failed without logged advisories, showing no worsening pattern of wear or recurring mechanical issues. The recorded mileage of 109,883 against a 2012 build equates to an average of roughly 7,849 miles per year, which sits within typical use for a light commercial of this age. The records show steady accumulation: 83,769 miles in May 2022, 95,060 by July 2023, 100,992 in November 2024, then 107,982 in October 2025 and 109,883 in January 2026. No large gaps or sudden high-use spikes appear. The sparse but clean test sequence suggests the previous keeper maintained basic statutory testing discipline, though the absence of advisories across four years means consumable conditions such as tyre tread depth, brake disc wear, and suspension bushes were either within limits or simply not flagged by testers. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points on the chassis and sills, as the MOT history offers no visibility of underlying rust given the clean sheets. The front-wheel-drive drivetrain and suspension components warrant hands-on checks for worn ball joints, coil spring fatigue, and steering play not captured in the records. The October 2025 failure with zero defects recorded demands clarification from DVSA or the testing station, since a nil-defect fail on a 13-year-old van is irregular and may point to a documentation anomaly rather than a roadworthiness concern.
