2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · X200 ADY

The 2026‑03‑18 MOT at 77,701 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance trend. Earlier tests showed minor, non‑critical advisories such as a worn suspension arm pin or bush in 2023 and a near‑side front brake disc wear in 2022, but none have re‑appeared. The 2017 Ford Transit is nine years old and has recorded 77,701 miles, averaging roughly 8,633 miles per year, which is typical for its age. The mileage shows a clear increase between 2022 and 2023, jumping from 23,948 to 46,366 miles, and again from 62,252 to 77,701 miles in the two years after the 2025 test, suggesting periods of heavier use. Recurring issues include wear of the near‑side front suspension arm pin or bush noted in the 2023 test, wear of the near‑side front brake disc and tyre edge wear recorded in 2022, and a 2025 test that flagged four‑fifths of the near‑side front LED headlamp as non‑functional. These patterns point to regular use of the front suspension and braking components and to possible neglect of lighting maintenance. A buyer should inspect the front suspension bushes for excessive play, test the brake discs and pads for binding or uneven wear, measure tyre tread depth and examine for edge wear, verify full headlamp operation, and look for any structural rust or corrosion on the chassis. The recent MOT confirms no current defects, but these checks will verify that the previously flagged items remain within acceptable limits.
