2015 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · CY65 CZR

The Ford Transit presents a current roadworthy status following a passed MOT on 21 November 2025 at 176,743 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable in terms of mechanical condition, though the test history reveals a pattern of administrative or undocumented failures immediately prior to the pass, suggesting last-minute rectification rather than ongoing deterioration. The recorded mileage of 176,743 against an 11-year-old van equates to roughly 16,068 miles per year, a high but plausible figure for a commercial Transit. Between the 15 November 2024 pass at 171,803 miles and the 21 November 2025 pass, the vehicle covered only 4,940 miles, a notable drop from its annual average that implies lighter recent use or periods off the road. The DVSA entries are sparse and clean, showing no advisories or defects across any test, which limits insight into wear on consumables or structure. The three failures in November 2024 and November 2025 all list no defects, meaning the tester issued a rejection without recording a specific fault code. This points to either documentation errors at the testing station or non-mechanical reasons such as presentation issues. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and underbody corrosion, as the absence of advisories does not confirm absence of wear at this mileage. Given the high cumulative mileage and the cluster of failed-then-passed tests within days, previous ownership likely deferred formal testing until absolutely necessary. Verify the van's service history and check for structural integrity around chassis rails and sills before purchase.
