2015 Ford Transit Custom 290 ECO-Tech 2.2L Heavy oil · BU15 AEX

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass on 23 November 2025 at 122,758 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any listed defects or advisories. The absence of recorded faults across multiple years suggests a vehicle that has been kept in a condition meeting the minimum legal requirements for road use. The mileage is typical for an eleven year old Transit, averaging roughly 11,160 miles per year. The distance covered between the June 2023 test at 114,720 miles and the November 2024 test at 120,248 miles shows steady usage of approximately 5,500 miles over seventeen months. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or sudden, heavy commercial exploitation. Two failures are noted in the history, specifically on 10 February 2023 and 3 November 2025. Because the DVSA record lists no specific defects for these failures, it is impossible to determine if these were due to minor consumables like wiper blades or more significant mechanical issues. The fact that the vehicle passed shortly after each failure indicates the faults were rectified quickly. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common Transit wear points that often escape MOT detection until they become critical. This includes checking for corrosion on the chassis rails and inspecting the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. Given the mileage exceeds 120,000, a manual check for clutch slip and the condition of the brake discs is recommended to ensure the vehicle remains mechanically sound beyond the basic MOT criteria.
