2017 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · FE67 ACU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 7 April 2026 at 156,010 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests shortly after initial failures. The absence of recorded defects or advisories in the most recent three years of testing suggests the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards. The mileage is high for a nine year old vehicle, averaging over 17,000 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between February 2025 and April 2026, where the odometer rose from 137,324 miles to 156,010 miles. This represents nearly 19,000 miles covered in just over a year. Such high utilization typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension systems. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the high mileage necessitates a targeted physical inspection. A buyer should specifically check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these frequently degrade under heavy load and high mileage. The brake discs and pads should be measured for remaining thickness, and the chassis should be inspected for corrosion, particularly in areas prone to rust on the Transit Connect platform. The lack of recorded advisories is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. This suggests either an exceptional maintenance regime or a tester who has been lenient. A professional mechanical check of the engine's oil condition and the state of the clutch is recommended to ensure the high-mileage drivetrain remains reliable.
