2017 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · BK66 XCD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 24 October 2025 at 153,653 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the results seen in the previous four inspections. This trend suggests that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids common mechanical failures or safety regressions. The mileage data indicates high annual usage, averaging approximately 17,000 miles per year over its nine-year lifespan. Between the June 2022 test at 97,808 miles and the October 2025 test at 153,653 miles, the vehicle covered over 55,000 miles in just over three years. While this rapid accumulation places significant strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, the lack of recorded advisories during this intensive period suggests the vehicle has likely been used for consistent motorway mileage rather than punishing short-trip urban cycles. Given the high mileage and the absence of recorded advisories in the history, a physical inspection should focus on components prone to high-mileage wear. A buyer must specifically check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these often degrade after 150,000 miles. The braking system should be examined for thin discs or binding calipers, and the structural integrity of the chassis must be verified for corrosion, particularly around the sills and mounting points where Transit Transit Connects frequently develop rust over time.
