2017 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · CX17 HKB

The 2017 Ford Transit Connect presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 February 2026 at 68,309 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from February 2023 to February 2025 also passed clean. The single failure entry on 16 February 2024 at 56,663 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating a administrative or retest anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 68,309 against roughly nine years of age, equating to about 7,590 miles per year and reflecting typical light commercial use. The odometer moved from 53,298 miles in February 2023 to 56,663 in February 2024, then 61,784 in February 2025 and 68,309 in February 2026, showing steady annual accumulation near 5,000 to 6,500 miles with no gaps or sudden spikes. The DVSA history is sparse on advisories, offering little evidence of deferred consumable work. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and the absence of any recorded corrosion or structural checks in the MOT data. The clean record provides no recurring fault pattern to track, but the unexplained fail on 16 February 2024 warrants confirmation that no latent issue was simply cleared without notation. Given the transit's low yearly mileage, prolonged standing periods may have affected tyre sidewalls or brake caliper condition despite no tester flags. Verify service history independently and probe underneath for structural rust at chassis mounting points before purchase.
