FORD TRANSIT2015 · 2.2L Diesel

The 2015 Ford Transit demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-09-08 at 78,085 miles recording a pass and no defects. However, the prior test on 2025-08-28 at 77,860 miles resulted in a failure, though no specific defects were noted. This suggests potential minor issues resolved between tests, but the absence of recorded faults in subsequent checks indicates the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable standards. The lack of recurring critical failures implies no systemic mechanical deterioration, though the failure in 2025-08-28 warrants scrutiny to confirm whether unresolved issues were addressed. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for the vehicle’s age, averaging approximately 7,099 miles annually. Notable fluctuations include a 10,075-mile increase between 2023-02-20 (58,052 miles) and 2024-08-28 (68,127 miles), reflecting a period of higher activity. A subsequent 9,733-mile rise to 77,860 miles by 2025-08-28 suggests sustained use, followed by a minimal 225-mile jump to 78,085 miles by the final test. These patterns indicate consistent operation without prolonged inactivity, though the short interval between the 2025-08-28 failure and 2025-09-08 pass raises questions about the urgency of repairs. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake components, including calipers and discs, warrant close examination for signs of wear or corrosion, as these are common failure points in transit vehicles. Structural integrity should also be assessed, focusing on rust or corrosion in underbody areas, which can develop over time. While the MOT records show no explicit faults, the 2025 failure and the vehicle’s 11-year history necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the absence of unresolved issues.
