2021 Ford Transit Connect 200 Base Tdci 1.5L Diesel · BT21 PKA

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by consecutive clean MOT passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 March 2025 at 65,448 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owner has successfully addressed any mechanical requirements prior to testing, suggesting the vehicle is currently in good operational condition. The mileage pattern reflects consistent high-intensity use, averaging approximately 13,000 miles per year. Between the 06 March 2024 test at 48,076 miles and the March 2025 test, the vehicle covered 17,372 miles in a twelve-month period. This rapid accumulation suggests the van is used regularly for commercial purposes rather than sitting idle for long periods. The lack of recorded advisories despite this mileage indicates that the drivetrain and chassis components have held up well under consistent operational loads. While the digital record is clean, the buyer must prioritize physical inspection of components susceptible to high-mileage wear. Focus should be placed on the front suspension bushes, coil springs, and ball joints for signs of perished rubber, as these often fail on Transit Connect models under heavy use. You should also examine the brake discs for thinning and check for binding calipers to ensure the high mileage has not stressed the braking system. Structural integrity remains a priority; check for early-stage corrosion, particularly around the sills and wheel arches, which the MOT tester only flags once it becomes significant. Given the vehicle's age and usage, verifying the service history for oil changes and timing belt intervals is essential to ensure the internal engine health matches the clean status of the MOT records.
