Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the vehicle has a consistent passing record, the most recent MOT highlights several developing mechanical issues that will require immediate attention.
Focus your negotiations on the 'advisories' from the October 2025 MOT. The mention of a front oil leak and corroded brake pipes on both the nearside rear and offside front suggests the vehicle is entering a phase of increased maintenance needs. Ask for evidence that these specific items have been rectified since the test.
Check the service history for evidence of regular oil changes to ensure the 2.2L engine has been well-maintained, as the current oil leak could be a symptom of aging seals or gaskets. Given the history of worn suspension bushes and prop shaft issues in 2022, ensure the vehicle drives straight and is free from unusual vibrations under acceleration.
As a 2.2L diesel, this Transit offers a balance of power and efficiency, though fuel costs will vary based on load. Being a 2015 model, it will fall into a standard diesel tax bracket for its age and weight class.
Insurance for these vans is typically moderate, but maintenance costs are likely to rise given the current MOT advisories. Expect to spend more than average on consumables like tyres and suspension components, as this specific vehicle has a documented history of rapid tyre wear and bushing deterioration.
Prioritise an inspection of the brake pipes and the front engine area. The October 2025 MOT specifically flagged corroded brake pipes (both front and rear) and a front oil leak; these should be physically inspected for worsening signs.
Check all four tyres and the suspension. The history shows a recurring theme of tyres worn to the legal limit and worn suspension arm pins/bushes (noted in 2023 and 2025). Ensure the tyres have a healthy tread depth and that there is no excessive play in the front inner suspension arms, as these have been flagged as worn but not yet failing.
This 2015 white Ford Transit with the 2.2L diesel engine has covered 101,586 miles. The MOT history shows a pattern of neglect regarding tyre maintenance and suspension wear, though it has generally passed its tests. The most recent inspection indicates emerging concerns with oil leaks and brake pipe corrosion.
The Ford Transit is a staple of UK roads, though longevity depends heavily on the maintenance of the suspension and braking systems in high-mileage examples.
