2011 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · AD60 YKC

The Ford Transit presents as roadworthy following its most recent pass on 30 July 2025 at 153,811 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the three years of records. The July 2025 test showed no defects, though it followed a failure two days earlier on 28 July 2025 at 153,810 miles where the tester recorded no specific defects, suggesting an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. A near-identical pattern occurred in July 2024, with a fail on 30 July at 134,652 miles and a pass the next day with no defects logged. Annual mileage has tracked close to the typical expectation for a 2011 van of this type. The record shows 110,372 miles at the July 2023 test, rising to 134,652 miles by July 2024 and 153,811 miles by July 2025, equating to roughly 19,000 to 20,000 miles in each intervening year, nearly double the long-term average of 10,254 miles per year. The data is sparse, with only three pass cycles and two paired fails logged, so no consumable wear or structural condition is evidenced beyond the bare outcomes. The repeated fail-then-pass sequences with no defects recorded point to clerical or presentation problems at the testing station rather than worsening mechanical condition. The clean advisories across all tests mean the official record raises no flags on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and running gear, as a Transit at 153,811 miles and fifteen years old will likely show age-related wear not captured by these minimal entries. Given the two unexplained failures in consecutive summers, verify the V5C and full service history before purchase. The absence of advisories does not confirm component health, only that the tester logged nothing. Prior owners kept the van in passable condition for the annual test but left no diagnostic trail of upkeep quality.
