2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · FG67 FHD

The most recent MOT test on 13 June 2025 at 47,644 miles passed with zero defects. A failed test recorded on the exact same date and mileage suggests an aborted test or an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical failure, given the absence of recorded defects. The maintenance trend remains stable and unblemished, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues flagged across the recorded history. The 2017 Ford Transit has covered 47,644 miles over nine years, averaging roughly 5,294 miles annually. This falls significantly below the national average, indicating light commercial use or prolonged periods of standing. The mileage accumulation shows a steady, gradual increase: 38,033 miles in February 2022, 40,736 miles in February 2023, 44,656 miles in June 2024, and 47,644 miles in June 2025. The consistent yearly progression rules out sudden high-mileage spikes, though the extended duration between the February 2023 and June 2024 tests warrants noting. Despite the clean MOT record, a low-mileage commercial vehicle of this age requires a thorough physical inspection. Prolonged standing can cause seized brake calipers, perished rubber suspension bushes, and deteriorated tyres with superficial cracking, none of which always manifest during a brief MOT test. Inspect the underbody closely for structural corrosion, particularly around the chassis rails, outriggers, and wheel arches, as light use in wet conditions can accelerate rust. Check the exhaust system for leaks and verify the condition of the brake discs and pads for surface corrosion from standing idle.
