Our Verdict
Exercise significant caution. The combin
Prioritise verifying whether the critical advisories from January 2024 were ever rectified. Specifically, ask for invoices proving the repair of the defective gearbox mountings, the corroded engine sump, and the replacement of the frayed auxiliary drive belt. Given the mileage exceeds 210,000, a comprehensive service history is essential to determine if the engine has received the necessary long-term care.
Negotiate the price based on the immediate need for new tyres and the replacement of missing rear bump stops, both of which were flagged in the March 2026 MOT. Ensure you check for any active oil leaks, as the 2024 record explicitly mentioned a corroded sump and oil leakage.
The 2.2L diesel engine provides the torque needed for a Transit, but fuel costs will be a primary expense given the vehicle's age and mileage. Maintenance costs are expected to be higher than average as the vehicle enters a phase where major components often require replacement.
Annual costs will include diesel, road tax based on the 2016 emissions bracket, and insurance. Typical maintenance for a high-mileage Transit includes frequent tyre replacements and suspension work, as evidenced by this vehicle's MOT history.
Conduct a thorough inspection of the underside, specifically focusing on the engine sump for corrosion and the gearbox mountings for stability, as these were flagged as defective in 2024. Check the brake pipes for corrosion and the brake discs for pitting or scoring, which were previously noted as concerns.
Inspect the interior for the condition of the seat belts; the 2025 and 2024 records both mention frayed or damaged webbing. Finally, check all four tyres for edge wear and ensure the rear suspension bump stops are present, as these are recurring issues in the MOT history.
This silver 2016 Ford Transit has covered 210,373 miles, which is substantially higher than the model average. While it has passed its MOT tests, the records reveal a pattern of neglect, particularly in the 2024 test which listed issues with the gearbox mountings, a corroded sump, and oil leaks. Recent tests continue to show recurring problems with tyre wear and missing suspension components.
The Ford Transit has an average MOT pass rate of 74.3%, with corrosion and tyre issues being among the top reasons for failure across the model range.
