2014 Ford Transit Connect 1.6L Diesel · AP14 DPF

The most recent DVSA MOT carried out on 2 September 2025 was a clean pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle presently satisfies the statutory safety and emissions criteria. Over the preceding eight‑year span the record shows a clear shift from a period of emerging issues – notably a recurring near‑limit front tyre tread depth, a defective side‑repeaters lens and a fractured off‑side front coil spring that caused a failure in July 2024 – to a subsequent resolution of those problems, as evidenced by the clean pass in 2025. This suggests that the major suspension fault was addressed and the tyre wear was likely remedied, pointing to an improving maintenance trajectory. At 139,773 miles on a 2014 model the average annual mileage works out at roughly 11,600 miles, which sits comfortably within the normal UK usage envelope for a light commercial vehicle of this age. The MOT history does not reveal any long periods of inactivity that would raise concerns about calendar‑related.
