2007 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · FL07 WDZ

Based on the official DVSA MOT records, this 2007 Ford Transit presents a stable and reassuring roadworthiness profile. The most recent test, conducted on 17 July 2025 at 159,759 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passes across the last three annual tests, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to a solid standard with no recurring mechanical or structural advisories. The mileage accumulation tells a coherent story. Between the June 2023 test at 155,591 miles and the June 2024 test at 157,402 miles, the vehicle covered 1,811 miles over twelve months. From June 2024 to July 2025, it added just 2,357 miles, bringing the total to 159,759. This equates to roughly 2,000 miles per year in recent use, which is notably low for a working Transit and suggests the vehicle may have seen lighter duties or spent extended periods stationary. The recorded mileage has remained static at 159,759 across both the failed and passed tests in July 2025, confirming no meaningful use occurred between those two dates. The absence of any defects across five consecutive MOT entries is genuinely unusual for a vehicle of this age and type. Most Transits operating at nearly 160,000 miles will present at least minor advisories around suspension bushes, brake wear, or exhaust condition. That said, the complete lack of flagged issues should prompt a buyer to verify the quality of recent work rather than assume the vehicle is mechanically pristine. A hands-on inspection should focus on the underside for structural corrosion, particularly around crossmembers, outriggers, and sill ends, as these are common failure points on older panel vans that MOT testers may not always flag until corrosion becomes severe. Prospective buyers should also examine the condition of the brake discs and pads, suspension coil springs and dampers, and the exhaust system for any signs of deterioration not yet visible to a tester. Tyre condition and age deserve close attention, as rubber degrades with time regardless of tread depth. The static mileage figure warrants a direct conversation with the seller about how the vehicle has been used and stored in the past twelve months. A vehicle sitting unused for long periods can develop seized calipers, perished hoses, and fuel system issues that a single MOT pass does not rule out.
