2009 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · DY09 HAO

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following an improving maintenance trend. The most recent MOT conducted in February 2026 at 214,985 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This is a significant improvement over February 2025, where the vehicle initially failed the test before passing immediately. The current clean sheet suggests that the previous owner addressed any mechanical or safety issues identified during those failures. The mileage profile indicates consistent high usage typical of a seventeen-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 12,600 miles per annum. Between August 2022 and February 2025, the vehicle covered 5,231 miles, followed by a surge of 6,818 miles in the twelve-month period between February 2025 and February 2026. This high rate of accumulation places considerable strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the regularity of the annual testing suggests the vehicle remains in active service rather than sitting idle. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and chassis-related components given the mileage. While the record shows no current defects, the high mileage makes the vehicle prone to accelerated wear on suspension bushes and ball joints. Inspect the inner sills and mounting points for corrosion, as these are common points of failure for Transits of this era. Because the vehicle failed in 2022 and 2025, a thorough check of the brake lines and exhaust system is necessary to ensure that previous repairs remain secure and are not showing signs of rapid degradation or leaks.
