2019 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · C4 VJR

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile with no recorded failures or advisories across the documented MOT history. The most recent test on 30 May 2025 at 89,069 miles returned a clean pass, indicating that the vehicle met the minimum legal requirements for roadworthiness at that time. The absence of recurring issues such as brake corrosion, suspension wear, or lighting defects suggests a steady approach to preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is significant for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 12,724 miles per year. The data shows a notable increase in usage over the last three years, rising from 62,522 miles in March 2022 to 89,069 miles in May 2025. This higher-than-average annual mileage suggests the van has been used regularly for commercial or long-distance transit rather than sitting idle. While the record is clean, this level of usage typically accelerates the wear on consumable components like clutch assemblies, timing belts, and suspension bushings. A prospective buyer should focus on the mechanical components most affected by high-mileage usage. Given the recent increase in annual distance, a physical inspection of the underside is necessary to check for chassis corrosion or leaks from the gearbox and engine. The suspension system, specifically the shock absorbers and control arm bushings, should be evaluated for signs of fatigue. Additionally, because the MOT record is purely a snapshot of legal compliance, the service history should be verified to ensure that oil changes and critical belt replacements have been performed according to the manufacturer's schedule.
