2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · AT16 AKE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a recent history of clean passes. The most recent test on June 3, 2025 at 51,770 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. This follows a clean pass in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have remained within tolerance during recent years. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old Transit, averaging approximately 5,177 miles per annum. Data shows a consistent usage profile, with a 6,568-mile increase between September 2022 and September 2023, and another 8,559 miles between June 2024 and June 2025. While the low mileage suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, the intervals between tests can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber-based components or brake systems if the vehicle sat stationary for extended periods. The failure recorded on September 6, 2023 at 37,944 miles is the only anomaly in the record, though the specific defect was not listed in the provided data. Because the vehicle passed the very following day, the issue was likely a minor item rectified immediately. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection for surface corrosion on the chassis and suspension members, which is common in Transits of this age regardless of mileage. Checking the condition of the brake discs for pitting is also advisable, as low-use vehicles often suffer from rust on the braking surfaces.
