2020 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · BK20 ABX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent test on 13 February 2026 at 62,426 miles, which resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a period of inconsistent maintenance in early 2025. The February 2025 inspection initially failed due to multiple consumable issues, including a non-functional offside headlamp, a faulty registration plate lamp, an ineffective windscreen wiper, and several tyres failing on tread depth or uneven wear. While the vehicle passed the subsequent retest on 18 February 2025, the initial failure indicates a pattern of neglecting basic upkeep regarding lighting and tyre condition. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical commercial usage pattern for a 2020 vehicle. The record shows 30,878 miles in April 2024, increasing to 50,495 miles by February 2025, and reaching 62,426 miles by February 2026. This represents an average annual usage of approximately 11,000 miles, which aligns with the provided context of 10,404 miles per year. There are no significant gaps in the testing intervals that would suggest long periods of inactivity or sudden, excessive mileage spikes. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the lighting systems and the condition of the tyres. Although the 2024 failure involved incorrect headlamp aim, the 2025 failures highlighted a tendency for tyres to wear unevenly or reach legal limits prematurely. This suggests a need to check the suspension geometry and steering components, such as tracking and bushes, to ensure the uneven tyre wear noted in February 2025 does not persist. The windscreen wiper assembly should also be checked for effective clearing to ensure the previous failure was fully resolved.
