2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CU67 PLZ

The 2017 Ford Transit presents a stable and reassuring roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 15 August 2024 at 79,115 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this clean result follows three prior consecutive passes. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults, advisories, or recurring mechanical issues across the available history, indicating consistent statutory compliance by the previous keeper. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a nine-year-old light commercial vehicle. The record shows 47,407 miles at the 18 August 2021 test, rising to 58,244 by 17 August 2022, then 68,527 on 19 August 2023, and 79,115 in August 2024. That equates to roughly 10,000 miles per year between tests, marginally above the 8,791 annual average, with no sudden jumps or dormant periods suggesting neglect or extended storage. The four-year MOT trail is sparse in volume but uniformly clean, offering no evidence of deferred upkeep. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of wear-prone components not always caught in a pass result. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness warrant hands-on checks given the vehicle's age and commercial loading cycles. Structural underbody corrosion around chassis rails and sill sections should be examined, as surface rust can develop unseen between annual tests. The absence of any recorded advisories means the tester raised no borderline items on tyres, wipers, or exhaust emissions. This implies the prior owner addressed consumables before each August deadline. Verify service history independently, since MOT passes alone confirm roadworthiness on the test day, not ongoing mechanical condition.
