2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · FE67 ABV

As of the most recent test on 18 February 2025 at 131,942 miles, the Transit passed with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle currently holds a valid roadworthy certificate and the maintenance trend appears stable across its recorded history. The lack of any advisories or defects across five tests signals consistent compliance with MOT standards, though the single failure in November 2023 with no listed defects interrupts an otherwise clean sequence. The van shows 131,942 miles on a 2017 plate, averaging roughly 14,660 miles per year, which is high for its age and points to sustained commercial use. From the August 2021 test at 95,503 miles to September 2022 at 106,421 miles, it covered about 10,918 miles in 13 months. A sharper rise occurred by November 2023 at 123,402 miles, adding 16,981 miles in 14 months. The final gap to February 2025 shows 8,540 miles over 15 months, suggesting usage slowed recently. The record is sparse but clean, with only the anomalous twin November 2023 entries at identical mileage. Despite the absence of flagged faults, the high mileage and nine-year age demand a physical check of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for fatigue not yet captured by MOT testers. The tester recorded no corrosion or structural concerns, yet a Transit used heavily will often hide minor chassis rust behind panels. We recommend a ramp inspection of subframes and sill integrity. The November 2023 failure with no defects suggests either a procedural error or rapid rectification of an unlisted issue; the owner cleared it within two days. This pattern implies the keeper addressed formalities promptly. Given the clean advisory sheet, assume consumable items like tyres and wiper blades were within limits but may now be due. A pre-purchase inspection should confirm emissions compliance and binding calipers under load.
