2009 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · CM59 JPM

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 27 November 2025 at 101,805 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes in both 2024 and 2025. These recurring failures suggest that the vehicle develops specific defects that are addressed just prior to the test, rather than undergoing proactive maintenance, yet it consistently meets safety standards once the necessary repairs are completed. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 101,805 miles is notably low, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 4,000 miles covered between November 2023 and November 2024, and another 4,243 miles covered in the following year. While this low mileage reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine components, low-speed use often leads to degradation of rubber-based parts and potential corrosion on the braking system due to lack of thermal cycling. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and mounting points, as older Transits are prone to hidden rust in the sills and floor pans. Given the history of failing before passing, a close look at the suspension bushes and coil springs is required to check for cracking or perished material from age. The inspector should also verify the brake discs for heavy pitting or seized calipers, as low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from surface corrosion and binding when components are not used regularly.
