2009 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · EU09 LHD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, though the history indicates a period of mechanical inconsistency. The most recent MOT test on 1 March 2023 at 191,866 miles passed with no recorded defects, suggesting that the vehicle was brought into full compliance following previous issues. This represents an improving trend compared to the failures in late 2021 and early 2022, indicating that the owner addressed the specific faults identified by the tester during that period. At 191,866 miles over 17 years, the Transit has averaged approximately 11,286 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a commercial vehicle. The data shows a significant period of activity between December 2020 and February 2022, where the vehicle covered 16,625 miles in just fourteen months. However, the gap between the March 2023 test and the current date of June 2026 means over three years have passed without a recorded inspection. This extended interval leaves the current state of high-wear-item components and structural integrity unverified despite the high recorded mileage. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components, as the age and mileage of this model increase the risk of corrosion and perished bushes. While the 2023 record was clean, the previous failures in 2021 and 2022 suggest that the vehicle is prone to requiring repairs. Particular attention should be paid to the brake system for binding calipers and the structural integrity of the exhaust and mounting points as these are common points of failure on Transits of this era that may not manifest until they become critical.
