2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CV67 PXC

The 2017 Ford Transit presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass on 27 November 2025 at 115,833 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, yet the vehicle failed twice previously on administrative grounds rather than mechanical faults, on 17 November 2025 and 4 November 2024, both at identical mileages to the subsequent passes. This pattern indicates the keeper addressed paperwork or presentation issues swiftly rather than tackling worn components, and no advisories or defects were ever logged across the five tests. Mileage sat at 84,059 on 13 November 2023, rose to 98,861 by 4 November 2024, and reached 115,833 by 17 November 2025, giving annual use of roughly 14,000 to 17,000 miles in the later years against a lifetime average near 12,870. The van is high mileage for a nine year old light commercial, pointing to sustained motorway or delivery work rather than standstill neglect. No gaps exist between annual tests, and the clean defect sheets suggest the previous owners kept basic test compliance in order even if no deeper inspection detail is visible. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the mileage and unrecorded wear on a Transit of this age. The absence of advisories across all entries does not confirm structural integrity or absence of corrosion, only that testers raised nothing at the time. Verify the underside for rust and check the drivetrain for leaks before purchase. Given the twin failures carried no recorded defects, confirm with the seller what caused the 2024 and 2025 refusals, as DVSA systems occasionally omit minor reasons. Treat the clean record as a positive but not a substitute for a physical appraisal of consumables and chassis condition at 115,833 miles.
