2011 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · CE11 AEK

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of passing its MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 19 June 2025 at 108,024 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes dating back to December 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a 15 year old commercial vehicle. Between December 2022 and June 2025, the odometer rose from 101,278 to 108,024 miles, representing a modest increase of 6,746 miles over approximately two and a half years. This low annual usage suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy commercial duty in recent years, which generally reduces the stress on the drivetrain and suspension components. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and model. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the chassis and underbody for corrosion, as surface rust often goes unmentioned until it becomes a structural failure. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the suspension bushes and brake discs, as these components can degrade due to age and inactivity even when mileage remains low. The failure recorded on 7 December 2023 was resolved on the same day, and the lack of specific defect data for that entry suggests a minor administrative or quick-fix issue. Given the lack of documented faults, the primary focus during a physical inspection should be on fluid leaks and the operational state of the electronics to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from periods of prolonged standing.
