2022 Ford Transit 350 Limited Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · CE11 MAC

The Ford Transit 350 Limited EcoBlue presents a clean and stable maintenance trend as of its most recent MOT on 13 March 2026 at 32,370 miles, where it passed with zero defects. The preceding test on 1 April 2025 at 28,711 miles also returned a completely clean pass. Two consecutive flawless MOTs indicate no active mechanical deterioration, no corrosion concerns, and no emissions or braking faults flagged by the tester. For a commercial vehicle of this age, that is a strong baseline. The mileage progression tells a consistent story. Between April 2025 and March 2026, the van covered 3,659 miles, which sits comfortably within the roughly 8,000 miles per year average established over its four-year life. There are no suspicious gaps suggesting long periods of inactivity, nor sudden spikes that would point to intensive high-stress use. The annual test spacing is regular, and the mileage accumulation appears steady rather than erratic. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still inspect the underside and structural mounting points in person. The Transit platform is prone to corrosion on rear subframe mounting points, outriggers, and inner wheel arches, particularly if the van has spent time on salted roads or standing idle between jobs. Check the condition of the rear leaf springs and front suspension bushes for perishing, as these wear gradually and may not yet trigger an advisory at this mileage. A road test is worthwhile to confirm the braking system remains free of drag and the gearbox shifts cleanly through all ratios. The EcoBlue diesel can suffer from DPF soot loading if the van has been used predominantly for short urban trips, even with no emissions advisory on the MOT. Inspect the exhaust for blue or white smoke on cold start, and verify the tyre condition across all four corners, including the spare if fitted.
