2019 Ford Transit Courier 1.5L Diesel · AP68 WWV

This Ford Transit Courier demonstrates a consistent and stable roadworthiness record, with every MOT test since 2022 passing without any recorded defects or advisories. The most recent inspection on 2025-08-07 confirms the vehicle remains compliant with current UK roadworthiness standards, though the absence of any faults does not preclude unseen wear—particularly in high-stress areas like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers. The lack of recurring advisories suggests previous owners adhered to basic maintenance intervals, though no data exists to confirm service records beyond MOT compliance. The recorded mileage of 58,465 miles over approximately seven years equates to an average of around 8,352 miles annually, a rate typical for a commercial van of this age. There are no significant gaps in MOT history, with tests conducted at near-annual intervals, though the longest stretch between tests was 6 months between 2023-01-25 and 2023-08-14. This pattern indicates consistent registration rather than neglect, but it also means no formal inspection has occurred since August 2025—nearly 14 months ago. Given the vehicle’s age and mileage, critical components like brake discs, suspension dampers, and exhaust systems should now be scrutinised for accelerated wear. A prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension geometry, particularly the rear axle alignment and condition of coil springs or bushes, as these are common failure points in vans of this age. The brakes—while never flagged in MOTs—should be tested for uneven pad thickness, binding calipers, or corrosion on the rear discs, which are prone to moisture retention in commercial vehicles. Structural integrity, especially around wheel arches and sills, warrants close examination for corrosion, as rust propagation can compromise the body’s load-bearing capacity over time. Tyre condition, though not recorded in MOTs, must be verified, as the absence of tread-related advisories could imply either diligent replacement or a history of underinflation.
