2007 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · BD07 FHT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, maintaining a consistent pass record over the last four years. Although the most recent test on 27 December 2024 at 182,415 miles initially recorded a failure, the immediate retry yielded a clean pass with no defects noted. This indicates that any mechanical or safety issues identified were rectified promptly, and the vehicle currently meets the minimum roadworthiness standards despite its age and mileage. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 19-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging 9,600 miles per annum. Between November 2021 and November 2022, the vehicle covered 16,382 miles, followed by another 19,669 miles between the late 2022 and 2023 tests. This steady accumulation suggests a regular use cycle rather than periods of heavy strain followed by long intervals of standing, which generally helps prevent the premature degradation of rubber components and fluidrelated seals. Given the age of this Ford Transit, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and suspension mounting points, as these areas are prone to corrosion over time. While the record lacks advisories, the high mileage necessitates a close look at the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components for uneven wear. You should also check for oil leaks around the engine and gearbox to ensure the clean MOT history reflects a well-maintained drivetrain rather than just a lack of reported faults.
