2022 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · BP71 LTY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather. While the most recent MOT test in April 2026 at 22,741 miles resulted in a pass, it introduced three new advisories that were not present previously. The appearance of thin rear brake pads and a worn offside rear tyre indicates that consumables are only being addressed once they approach failure limits rather than through a preventative service schedule. The mileage profile is notably low for a four-year-old Transit, averaging approximately 5,685 miles per annum. Between the February 2025 test at 15,833 miles and the April 2026 test, the vehicle covered 6,908 miles in just fourteen months. This recent increase in usage follows a period of low-distance operation, which can lead to issues such as carbon buildup or premature corrosion of braking components if the vehicle is not driven regularly on longer routes. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the rear suspension and wheel alignment, as the uneven wear on the offside rear tyre suggests a potential tracking issue or worn suspension bushes. The recurring defective nearside side repeater lens has persisted since the 2025 test, indicating a minor lack of attention to cosmetic exterior defects. Furthermore, the thin brake pads require immediate replacement to ensure the rear discs have not been scored or glazed, which would increase the cost of repair.
