2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · CU16 EAM

The 2016 Ford Transit presents as roadworthy following a passed MOT on 7 May 2025 at 57,785 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every annual test from 3 May 2023 through 7 May 2025 clearing without advisories or noted wear. The record shows no worsening mechanical condition and no recurring faults requiring intervention. Recorded mileage sits at 57,785 against a ten-year-old van, an average of roughly 5,778 miles per year and low for the model. The tests chart steady, light use: 45,397 miles on 3 May 2023, 51,067 on 3 May 2024, and 57,785 on 7 May 2025. Annual accumulation stayed near 5,700 to 6,700 miles with no gaps or sudden jumps. Sparse clean entries mean the DVSA data alone reveals little about consumable turnover such as tyres, wiper blades, or brake disc thickness. The buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers given the low mileage and likely periods of standing. Long idle spells can seize handbrake mechanisms and promote underbody corrosion unseen by the tester. The two failed tests on 6 May 2025 and 2 May 2024 at identical mileages recorded no defects, implying administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical fault, yet structural integrity and exhaust emissions should be confirmed on the ramp. Given the clean advisory history, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance. A pre-purchase check of drivetrain oil condition and tyre sidewall age remains sensible on a low-use commercial vehicle.
