2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · EY17 YFW

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 25 June 2026 at 162,595 miles where no defects were recorded. This follows a consistent period of clean results since a minor mechanical failure in late 2020. The vehicle has undergone five consecutive tests without advisories or failures, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have been maintained sufficiently to meet minimum legal standards. The mileage profile reflects heavy commercial usage, averaging approximately 18,000 miles per year over its nine-year life. The data shows consistent accumulation, with a 13,910-mile interval between the June 2025 and June 2026 tests, and another 22,489-mile gap between November 2022 and December 2023. While the high mileage indicates the vehicle has been used regularly, which puts significant strain on the drivetrain and suspension, the lack of recurring advisories suggests the previous owners did not run it to neglect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension system and braking components, as the high mileage accelerates the wear on rubber bushes, shock absorbers, and brake discs. The 2020 failure for worn front brake pads at 63,885 miles indicates that consumable maintenance occurs reactively rather than proactively. Given the age and heavy use of this Ford Transit, a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion and the leaf spring integrity is essential, as these are common points of failure for high-mileage vans.
