2011 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · CO08 KEW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test in June 2025 at 36,142 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This consistency across the last five years suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a functional standard and has not suffered from the mechanical degradation typically seen in commercial vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a fifteen-year-old Ford Transit, averaging approximately 2,400 miles per year. There is a notable gap in the records between November 2020 and June 2022, during which the vehicle covered only 1,532 miles over seventeen months. Since then, the usage has remained at a leisurely pace, adding roughly 3,000 miles between each annual test interval. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it indicates the vehicle spends long periods stationary, which can trigger specific age-related issues. Despite the clean MOT history, an in-person inspection must focus on risks associated with low usage rather than high mileage wear. The buyer should check rubber components, such as suspension bushes, split boots, and tyres, which often perish or crack from age and lack of heat cycling. The braking system should be scrutinized for seized calipers or rusted discs, as infrequent use frequently leads to corrosion on braking surfaces. Structural integrity of the chassis remains a priority, as Transit models of this era prone to rust that can develop in hidden areas even if the vehicle is not driven daily.
