2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CV67 UNU

The November 2025 MOT at 161,065 miles produced a pass, confirming roadworthiness at that date, while repeated brake and lighting failures reveal a maintenance trend that is neither stable nor improving. The vehicle is a 2017 Ford Transit now nine years old with 161,065 recorded miles, equating to roughly 17,900 miles per year, a rate that is high for its age and suggests intensive use or long periods of standing. Mileage jumps from 107,799 miles in June 2022 to 129,899 miles in June 2023, a 22,100‑mile increase in one year, and another 29,000‑mile rise between June 2024 and November 2025. Recurring issues include near‑side rear brake pad contamination, tyre cuts reaching the ply, imbalanced rear brakes, and direction indicator colour errors, while earlier tests flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, prop shaft bearing play and an oil leak. A buyer should therefore inspect the condition of the suspension components, verify brake pad and disc wear, examine tyre tread and sidewall integrity for cuts, test all direction indicators and lamps for correct operation, and look for structural rust or corrosion, especially around the registration plate and chassis rails.
