2009 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · CV58 ABZ

The 2009 Ford Transit’s most recent MOT on 2024-11-01 at 211,238 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend in the final 18 months. However, the 2021-12-06 test shows conflicting outcomes—both a pass and a fail at the same mileage, raising questions about data accuracy or unresolved issues. No structural or safety-critical defects were noted in the latest test, but the absence of recorded faults does not guarantee mechanical integrity, particularly given the vehicle’s high annual mileage. The vehicle’s 211,238 miles equate to approximately 12,426 miles per year, significantly above average for its age. This suggests heavy usage, which accelerates wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and drivetrain elements. A gap of 8,719 miles between the 2020-01-27 pass (197,323 miles) and 2021-12-06 tests implies irregular servicing, while the 2021-12-06 failure at 206,035 miles—without recorded defects—may indicate unresolved minor issues. The MOT history lacks detail on consumables or structural checks, limiting insight into long-term care. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as high mileage often exacerbates these issues. Brake components, including calipers and discs, warrant close scrutiny due to potential corrosion or uneven wear. Structural rust, particularly in the chassis or body panels, should be checked, as it can develop in vehicles with inconsistent maintenance. The absence of recorded advisories in recent tests does not eliminate risks, given the vehicle’s usage profile and data gaps.
