2011 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · DN11 NEY

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 20 December 2025 at 111,580 miles. This test recorded no defects, suggesting a stable level of mechanical upkeep in the immediate term. While the history shows a momentary failure in 2015, the vehicle has maintained consistent passes thereafter, indicating that major mechanical failures remained dormant over the last several years. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle used for light commercial or domestic duties, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year. However, there is a significant data gap in the record between the July 2016 test at 104,159 miles and the December 2025 test at 111,580 miles. This nine-year period covers only 7,421 miles, suggesting either long periods of infrequent use or a lapse in annual annual testing. The lack of interim records during this decade makes it impossible to verify the condition of rubber-based components or fluid degradation during that specific interval. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and mounting points, given the vehicle's age and the potential for corrosion during periods of standing. Because the recent test showed no advisories, the inspector should manually check for hairline fractures in suspension bushes and coil springs which often perish on Transit Connects regardless of mileage. Additionally, examine the brake discs for surface pitting or seized calipers, as the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to components seizing if the vehicle was not driven regularly.
