2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CV17 TBY

The 2017 Ford Transit presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 January 2026 at 57,064 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes since 2021. Annual mileage sits at roughly 6,340 miles, typical for a nine-year-old light commercial vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 28,637 miles in September 2021, 34,090 by August 2022, 39,302 in July 2023, 45,907 in December 2024, and 57,064 in January 2026. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests stretched to seventeen months yet added only 6,605 miles, implying a period of lighter use. No test failures or advisories appear across the dataset, so the history is sparse but clean. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and van-duty loading cycles, none of which the MOT history has flagged. Structural integrity around chassis rails and sills warrants a visual check for corrosion, as the absence of advisories does not guarantee freedom from early-stage rust. The clean record suggests previous keepers kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement. With no recurring faults to track, the principal risk lies in unseen wear not captured by pass-only tests, so a pre-purchase mechanical survey remains prudent.
