2019 Ford Transit Courier 1.5L Diesel · AX68 NXJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, passing its most recent inspection in August 2025 with no recorded defects. The overall maintenance trend appears stable but reactive. The failure immediately preceding that passing test at 150,316 miles involved minor electrical and fluid issues, specifically a blown offside stop lamp, a faulty registration plate lamp, and insufficient washer fluid. These issues were rectified quickly to secure the pass, suggesting the owner addresses faults once they are flagged by the tester rather than through proactive preventative mechanical maintenance. The mileage reflects a high-intensity profile, averaging approximately 21,500 miles per year over its seven-year lifespan. The accumulation accelerated significantly between January 2022 and February 2024, where the vehicle covered 54,075 miles in just 25 months. The interval between the February 2024 and August 2025 tests saw another 27,781 miles covered. This consistent high-mileage usage puts considerable strain on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system, which typically accelerates the wear of consumables compared to average vehicles. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and tyres, given the high mileage and the 2023 advisory regarding low tread on the front and offside rear tyres. Check for excessive play in suspension bushes, worn shock absorbers, and coil springs, as these often fail prematurely on heavy commercial use. While the MOT record does not flag structural corrosion yet, the high annual mileage warrants a close look at the chassis and door sills to ensure no hidden rust has compromised the structural integrity of the van.
