2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CV67 EUY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward minor peripheral neglect. The most recent test in February 2025 at 130,087 miles resulted in a failure due to a damaged nearside obligatory mirror and an inoperative side repeater, which were rectified immediately to secure a pass. Prior to this, the vehicle maintained a clean record for several years, suggesting that the core mechanical components remained stable during periods of lower operation. The mileage profile indicates high-intensity use, averaging over 14,000 miles annually across its nine-year life. There is a significant surge in usage between the September 2022 test at 55,545 miles and the February 2024 test at 97,920 miles. In that 17-month window, the vehicle covered more than 42,000 miles. This rapid accumulation is consistent with heavy commercial or transit work, which typically accelerates the wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking hardware. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system, as the 2021 test at 49,421 miles flagged both front and rear discs as worn, pitted, or scored. While these were not failures at the time, the high mileage since then suggests these components may be nearing the end of their service life. Given the transit nature of the vehicle, a close-up check for structural corrosion on the chassis and underbody is essential, as these are common points of failure on high-mileage Ford vans that have not yet been flagged in the MOT advisories.
