2021 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · CP71 KHZ

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition, showing a clear improving trend following a significant mechanical failure. The most recent test in June 2026 at 33,358 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the critical issues identified in the previous year were addressed. This stability follows a clean pass in November 2025, suggesting that the vehicle has maintained its operational standards since the major repair period. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a five-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. There is a notable cluster of activity between December 2024 and June 2026, where the vehicle covered over 3,600 miles in eighteen months. However, the overall low mileage of 33,358 miles relative to the Transit's age suggests light use, which typically preserves the integrity of the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage vans. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front braking system due to the December 2024 failure at 29,701 miles. The tester flagged the offside front brake as excessively binding with inner pads less than 1.5mm thick, which often indicates a sticking caliper or a perished piston. While the subsequent tests passed, a manual check for uneven pad wear or heat discoloration is necessary to ensure the binding issue was fully rectified. Additionally, the nearside seat belt buckle and washer system should be verified to ensure these previous minor failures were replaced rather than merely adjusted.
