2014 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · AY64 NHF

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT following a pass on 23 January 2026 at 164,250 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the most recent test resulted in no recorded defects. While the vehicle underwent two failed tests in 2025 and 2026, these failures did not result in long-term recurring advisories, suggesting that any issues identified during those inspections were rectified promptly to achieve the subsequent passes. The mileage accumulation is significant, with the vehicle covering 14,682 miles between the January 2025 and January 2026 tests. This consistent annual average of roughly 13,700 miles is typical for a commercial Ford Transit of this age, indicating regular, heavy-duty use rather than sporadic short trips. The progression from 149,568 miles in January 2024 to 164,250 miles in early 2026 shows a steady and predictable usage pattern. Given the high mileage and the commercial nature of this vehicle, a physical inspection should focus on heavy wear components. You should closely examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of fatigue or leaks. The high annual mileage increases the likelihood of premature wear on steering linkages and drive shafts. Check the underbody for significant corrosion, particularly around the chassis rails and subframes, which is common on older Transits. While the MOT record is currently clean, the history of failures suggests the vehicle requires diligent upkeep. A thorough inspection of the brake discs, calipers, and exhaust system is advised to ensure no binding or excessive thinning has occurred between the recorded tests.
