2002 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · FH02 FOF

The Ford Transit presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 14 December 2023 at 152,090 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 8 December 2022 at 151,342 miles also showed a clean sheet. The only blemish is a failed test logged on 8 December 2022 at the same mileage, yet the record lists no defects against that failure, which points to an administrative or presentation anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The van has covered 152,090 miles over roughly 24 years, averaging about 6,337 miles per year, which is typical for a light commercial of this age. Between the December 2022 and December 2023 tests the odometer advanced just 748 miles, indicating the vehicle saw very limited use in that period. The supplied history is sparse, with only three entries across two dates, so no meaningful wear pattern or recurring fault trend can be drawn from the data. Given the clean MOT outcomes and absence of advisories, the buyer should still physically verify structural integrity and corrosion on chassis rails, sills, and suspension mounting points, as a 2002 Transit is prone to rot in these areas despite passing tests. Inspect front suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for age-related degradation that a no-defect pass may not capture on a low-mileage year. Confirm the December 2022 failure with no defects was a clerical duplicate rather than a concealed rejection. Check exhaust emissions and drivetrain condition in person, since 748 miles of annual use can allow moisture build-up and seized calipers through standing.
