2010 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · CV60 OCU

The 2010 Ford Transit Connect exhibits a stable roadworthiness trend based on its most recent MOT on 2025-11-18 at 141,882 miles, which recorded a pass with no defects. Subsequent tests from 2024-11-22 and 2023-11-21 also showed passes, while two failures in October and November 2023 at 141,168 and 141,208 miles respectively noted no defects. This suggests the vehicle has maintained compliance without significant mechanical deterioration, though the repeated failures without recorded issues may indicate procedural inconsistencies or minor faults that resolved before the final test. The mileage of 141,882 miles over 16 years equates to an average of 8,868 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. MOT records show consistent intervals of approximately 12 months, with minimal mileage fluctuations between tests—428 miles between 2024-11-22 and 2025-11-18, and 432 miles between 2023-11-21 and 2024-11-22. No gaps or rapid accumulation are evident, implying steady, predictable usage. The absence of recurring defects in recent tests supports the conclusion of a well-maintained vehicle within normal wear parameters. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of the braking system, as the 2023 failures—though unrecorded—may hint at transient issues requiring scrutiny. Suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, should be checked for wear given the vehicle’s age, while corrosion risks in body panels and undercarriage warrant attention. Despite the clean recent MOT history, the lack of defect details in earlier failures necessitates a professional assessment to confirm no latent mechanical or structural concerns persist.
