2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · X10 DCR

The most recent MOT, carried out on 10 October 2025 at 89,860 miles, resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. That result continues an uninterrupted and entirely trouble-free history: every annual test from May 2022 through to October 2025 has passed with no advisories. The maintenance trend is therefore stable and genuinely positive, showing no signs of deterioration in suspension, brakes, or structural condition over the last three and a half years of recorded testing. The mileage is proportionate for a vehicle first registered in 2016. The recorded 89,860 miles equates to roughly 8,986 miles per year, which sits squarely at the typical national average. The intervals between tests vary slightly: the 14 months from May 2022 to July 2023 covered only 8,800 miles, while the 16 months from July 2023 to November 2024 saw a slightly higher accumulation of around 12,420 miles. The final gap of 11 months, ending at 89,860 miles, added about 8,500 miles. Nothing here suggests hard commercial use, prolonged standing, or an unusually rapid rise in mileage. Because the MOT record is entirely clean, there are no specific recurring faults to chase. That said, a ten-year-old Transit at nearly 90,000 miles will inevitably carry wear on consumables that an annual test may not fully expose. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on suspension bushes and coil springs, brake discs and binding calipers, and the condition of the underside for corrosion on chassis rails and outriggers. The absence of any previous defects is a strong point in the vehicle's favour, but it does not replace a physical inspection of these high-wear areas before you commit.
