2015 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · BN65 VGR

The 2015 Ford Transit’s most recent MOT test on 2025-06-23 confirms it remains roadworthy at 64,845 miles, with no defects or advisories recorded. This represents a stable maintenance trend over the past year, as the vehicle passed both its 2025 and 2023 tests without fail, despite the unusual double-test pattern in 2022 and 2023. The absence of recurring advisories or defects suggests the vehicle has not experienced persistent mechanical issues, though the repeated retesting in late 2022 and late 2023—both at the same mileage—indicates a minor administrative anomaly rather than a technical concern. The recorded mileage of 64,845 miles over 11 years equates to approximately 5,895 miles annually, which is unusually low for a commercial van of this age. The gap between tests in 2022 and 2023—just one day apart—suggests either a technical error or a deliberate retest, but no defects were logged either time. The most significant mileage jump occurred between the 2022 and 2023 tests, where the vehicle accumulated 4,077 miles in under a year, a rate that, while still conservative, is more typical for light-duty use. The lack of intermediate MOTs or service records means no insight exists into whether this low mileage reflects regular maintenance or prolonged storage. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of high-wear components that are not directly tested by the MOT but critical to long-term reliability. The suspension—particularly rear coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers—should be examined for uneven wear or corrosion, as these are often overlooked in low-mileage vehicles that have stood idle. Brake systems, including rear calipers and discs, warrant close scrutiny, as binding or uneven wear can develop without obvious MOT failings. Structural integrity, especially around wheel arches, sills, and the rear cargo area, must be checked for corrosion, as commercial vans are prone to salt and moisture ingress. Finally, the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or rust, as emissions-related failures are not always flagged until they become severe.
