2010 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · B26 BAP

This 2010 Ford Transit currently holds valid roadworthiness status following a clean pass on 19 March 2026 at 153,556 miles. The maintenance trend is remarkably stable and clean, contrasting sharply with the typical wear patterns seen on commercial vehicles of this vintage. The vehicle has accumulated 153,556 miles over its sixteen-year lifespan, averaging roughly 9,597 miles annually, which represents typical light-to-moderate commercial use. A notable four-year operational gap exists between the clean pass on 19 April 2022 and the most recent 2026 test, indicating the van likely spent extended periods off the road or underwent a change in operational status. The brief failure recorded on 19 April 2022 alongside its immediate pass later that same day points to a minor administrative issue or a rectified test refusal rather than a major mechanical breakdown. Because the DVSA record is exceptionally sparse on advisories and defects, physical inspection must focus on age-related structural integrity and commercial wear. Buyers should thoroughly examine the chassis, sills, and wheel arches for hidden corrosion, as Ford Transits of this era are prone to rust in load-bearing areas. A close physical check of the suspension bushes, leaf springs, and braking components remains essential since these mechanical assemblies bear heavy payload stresses regardless of clean historical test certificates.
