2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · CK16 RYV

The 2016 Ford Transit presents a stable and highly consistent maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 16 May 2025 at 83,470 miles with zero defects recorded. This unblemished record across five consecutive annual tests indicates a vehicle maintained to a standard that consistently meets DVSA roadworthiness criteria. The absence of any advisories or failures suggests diligent preventative care rather than reactive repairs, reflecting an owner who kept on top of consumable wear and structural integrity. The mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical usage for a commercial van of this age, averaging roughly 8,347 miles per year. Between the 2021 test at 46,524 miles and the 2022 test at 55,443 miles, the van covered 8,919 miles, a pattern that repeated consistently through the 2023 test at 63,754 miles and the 2024 test at 72,665 miles. The most recent year shows a slight reduction in use, with 10,805 miles covered between April 2024 and May 2025. There are no alarming gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer readings that would suggest clocking or prolonged periods of inactivity. While the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection remains essential for a commercial vehicle of this age. Buyers should verify the structural integrity of the chassis and load area, specifically probing for corrosion or cracking around common stress points. Suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, require close scrutiny for wear that might not yet constitute a testable failure. Brake discs, pads, and calipers should be measured for remaining life, while tyres must be checked for uneven wear indicating tracking or alignment issues.
