2008 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · CV58 AEA

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, following a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 February 2025 at 153,563 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle met all legal standards at that time. This followed a curious failure just two miles prior on the same day, which suggests a minor adjustment or a specific sensor-related failure that was rectified immediately before the re-test. The mileage pattern is consistent with an 18-year-old commercial vehicle averaging approximately 8,500 miles per annum. Between January 2023 and February 2024, the vehicle covered 15,260 miles, showing a period of higher usage, whereas the interval between February 2024 and February 2025 saw an accumulation of 14,256 miles. This steady mileage suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left stationary for long periods, which generally reduces the likelihood of internal engine issues like corrosion or brake-related seizing. While the record is clean of recurring advisories, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the structural integrity. Given the age of this Ford Transit, the lack of recorded rust necessitates a close look at the chassis rails and mounting points where salt and corrosion typically accumulate. The buyer should also inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components undergo significant wear on vehicles exceeding 150,000 miles, even if they have not yet trigger an MOT failure.
