2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · AA51 TOM

The 2016 Ford Transit presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 April 2026 at 100,864 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the available history. Annual mileage averages around 10,000 miles, consistent with typical light commercial use for a ten-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 52,492 miles in April 2022, 65,024 in April 2023, 76,746 in March 2024, 90,106 in April 2025, and 100,864 in April 2026. No gaps or sudden jumps appear in the data, and every test passed without advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension, or corrosion. The absence of flagged faults across five consecutive tests suggests the previous keeper maintained the van to a reasonable standard, with no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A clean record of this length on a Transit does imply disciplined servicing rather than patchwork fixes. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of common Ford Transit wear points not always caught in a 12-month test cycle. Examine front suspension bushes, rear coil springs, and brake disc thickness for incipient wear, and check sills and chassis rails for early corrosion. Verify service history independently, as the MOT alone confirms compliance rather than component condition between tests.
