2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · AV67 ORJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean pass in the June 2026 test at 90,831 miles. This most recent result suggests that previous mechanical issues have been addressed, as the record shows no defects or advisories. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, moving from a period of frequent failures and multiple advisories between 2020 and 2023 toward a more consistent pattern of passing tests without issue over the last two years. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical commercial vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, moving from 45,382 miles in September 2021 to 90,831 miles in June 2026. There are no significant gaps in the testing timeline that would suggest long periods of inactivity, and the progression of mileage indicates the vehicle has been used regularly for its intended purpose. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system and suspension components. The MOT history shows recurring issues with brake pad wear and corroded brake pipes, specifically noted in the October 2022 test. While the most recent tests were clear, the previous failures regarding the offside front anti-roll bar ball joint and the offside front inner drive shaft CV boot suggest that the suspension and drivetrain components have been subject to wear. The record also highlights past issues with tyre maintenance and lighting, such as the May 2025 failure for non-functional dipped beam headlamps and the May 2023 failure for incorrect tyre fitment and worn treads. Although these appear to be resolved, a manual check of the current tyre brands, tread depth, and all exterior lighting is necessary. Checking for any signs of the previously noted oil leak during a stationary inspection would also be a prudent step to ensure the issue has been fully rectified.
