2013 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · EU13 XFB

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status following a clean pass in September 2025 at 158,742 miles. While the history shows two instances of failure, both were rectified immediately with successful re-tests within the same month. The most recent inspection indicates no defects or advisories, suggesting that the mechanical and safety components are currently meeting the minimum standards for road use despite the high mileage associated with the vehicle. At 158,742 miles over 13 years, this Ford Transit has averaged approximately 12,200 miles per annum. This represents consistent, heavy-duty usage rather than neglect or sporadic operation. The data shows a significant burst of activity between January 2024 and January 2025, where the vehicle covered nearly 8,000 miles in twelve months. This rate of accumulation places considerable strain on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking system, yet the lack of recurring advisories in the 2024 and 2025 tests suggests the owner has been proactive in addressing wear-related failures. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage Transit wear. Given the age, a thorough check of structural integrity on the chassis sills and floor pans is essential, as corrosion often develops undetected in these areas. You should also examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber, as the consistent high mileage accelerates rubber component degradation. While the latest MOT record is clean, the brake discs and calipers should be inspected for thinning or sticking to ensure the system is not nearing the end of its functional life.
