2023 Ford Tourneo Connect Titnium Ebst A 1.5L Petrol · BD23 ACV

The vehicle currently holds a valid test certificate following a pass recorded on July 16 2026 at 18,522 miles, which immediately followed a failure three days prior on July 13 2026 due to a missing driver airbag. The maintenance trend reflects a single testing event cycle with a serious structural modification involving interior seating and supplemental restraint systems. While the vehicle successfully cleared the subsequent test after rectifying or documenting the major defect, the underlying configuration demands careful scrutiny regarding its compliance and safety alterations. The recorded mileage stands at 18,522 miles for a vehicle that is approximately three years old, representing an average accumulation of roughly 6,174 miles per year. This mileage accumulation sits well within typical usage parameters for a modern multi-purpose vehicle of this classification. The MOT history is exceptionally sparse, containing only the dual test events from July 2026, which is standard for a late-model vehicle reaching its first mandatory statutory test window. A physical inspection must prioritize the front braking system, as both July 2026 tests noted front brake pads wearing thin and requiring near-term replacement. The evaluator must inspect the structural integrity of the cabin floor and seat mountings given the recorded absence of the nearside front passenger seat and the steering wheel airbag modifications associated with wheelchair adaptation. Verification of the supplemental restraint system functionality and wiring loom integrity is essential to ensure that the dashboard warning light behavior matches factory specifications following the previous airbag discrepancy.
