2011 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · YG61 AAV

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a recent pass in June 2025 at 101,238 miles. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing the test after initial failures, suggesting that minor defects are being addressed promptly. The most recent test in June 2025 indicates the vehicle was returned to a roadworthy state, and the lack of any recorded advisories suggests that the immediate mechanical condition was satisfactory at the time of testing. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a 15-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 6,750 miles per year. The jump from 80,188 miles in March 2023 to 84,143 miles in April 2024 shows a steady usage pattern, while the increase to 101,238 miles by June 2025 reflects a typical operational workload for a Ford Transit. This gradual mileage progression suggests the vehicle has not been subject to extreme long-distance haulage or, conversely, prolonged periods of inactivity. Because the MOT records do not specify the exact nature of the failures in March 2023 and June 2025, a physical inspection is necessary to confirm the current state of consumables. A buyer should specifically examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these frequently trigger failures on high-use vans. Given the age and mileage, checking for structural corrosion on the chassis and subframes is essential to ensure no underlying degradation exists that the MOT testing regime might have overlooked. The absence of recorded advisories in the most recent tests is a positive indicator, but the recurring failures suggest the vehicle may require more frequent attention to minor components. Inspect the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and verify the condition of the exhaust system and emissions levels. While the records suggest a well-maintained vehicle, the transition from a failure to a pass without recorded advisories implies that the previous owner was proactive in rectifying identified issues.
