2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · WO66 AEU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-06-13 at 98,125 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, a prior failure on 2025-04-17 at 95,515 miles—also without recorded defects—suggests an unresolved issue that was subsequently addressed. The absence of specific fault details in both tests limits definitive conclusions, but the rapid return to compliance after the failure implies corrective action was taken. Overall, the maintenance trend shows stability in recent tests, though the unexplained failure raises questions about underlying systemic concerns. The vehicle’s mileage of 98,125 miles aligns with an average annual usage of ~10,903 miles, consistent with its 9-year age. The MOT history reveals a gap of 13 months between the 2024-04-06 pass (81,673 miles) and the 2023-03-31 pass (66,223 miles), followed by a 12-month interval until the 2022-03-10 test (50,670 miles). This pattern suggests regular servicing but no significant mileage spikes or prolonged inactivity. The lack of recurring defects in earlier tests indicates no persistent mechanical issues, though the 2025 failure remains an anomaly without further clarification. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the braking system, as unexplained failures may hint at intermittent faults in calipers, discs, or hydraulic components. Suspension bushes and coil springs should also be checked for wear, given the vehicle’s age and typical usage. Structural integrity, particularly around the chassis and body mounting points, warrants scrutiny to rule out corrosion or fatigue. While the MOT record shows no immediate risks, the 2025 failure underscores the need for a detailed pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical reliability.
