2007 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · WR07 AAJ

As a 2198cc diesel, this Transit is designed for efficiency under load, though fuel economy will depend heavily on its payload and driving style. Tax and insurance groups for 2007 Transits vary, but typically fall into mid-range brackets suitable for small business use.

Maintenance costs for this model are generally predictable due to the vast availability of parts, though heavy-duty use can increase the frequency of consumable replacements like tyres and brake pads. Expect an estimated annual running cost in the region of £1,500-£2,000 depending on annual mileage and fuel prices.

Given the model aggregate data identifies headlamps, corrosion, and tyres as top failure reasons, you should pay close attention to the condition of the headlight lenses and the integrity of the chassis/bodywork for signs of rust. Check all tyres for adequate tread depth and even wear, which can indicate alignment issues.

Additionally, because this is a diesel engine from 2007, listen for any unusual knocking or smoke from the exhaust during a test drive. Inspect the underside for any signs of fluid leaks that may not have been caught in the most recent 'no defect' MOT test.
