2007 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · FH07 UEC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT on 26 September 2025 at 213,164 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the vehicle failed the test just days before the expiry and was rectified quickly. This suggests that the previous owner addresses specific faults only when prompted by a test failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 19 years old, the 213,164 miles represent an average of approximately 11,219 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a commercial Transit of this age. The data shows consistent use, with roughly 6,800 miles covered between May 2023 and July 2024, and another 9,300 miles recorded between July 2024 and September 2025. This steady rate of accumulation indicates the vehicle has been used regularly, placing significant cumulative wear on drivetrain components, suspension, and braking systems. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural areas most susceptible to high-mileage wear on this model. While the recent pass showed no advisories, the age demands a close check for corrosion on the chassis members, floor pans, and mounting points. Given the history of recent failures, a thorough examination of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake lines is necessary to ensure no underlying mechanical issues remain. The buyer should also inspect the exhaust system for thinning metal or leaks, as these are common points of failure on older Transits exceeding 200,000 miles.
