2017 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · FL67 AYM

The 2017 Ford Transit presents a highly stable and exemplary maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass during its most recent MOT on 22 November 2025 at 83,145 miles. Every recorded test since 2021 has passed without a single defect or advisory, indicating a vehicle that has been consistently well-maintained and kept in sound mechanical order. This unblemished record strongly suggests a diligent previous owner who addressed wear items proactively rather than waiting for components to fail. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical usage for a commercial van of this age, averaging roughly 9,200 miles annually. The annual intervals between tests show a slight reduction in usage recently, dropping from 12,304 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests to 6,751 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This recent dip could indicate lighter duties or shorter operational routes, though the overall chronological progression remains entirely consistent with genuine, regular use rather than clocking or long-term storage. Despite the flawless MOT history, a physical inspection remains essential for a vehicle of this age and type. Buyers should closely examine the structural integrity of the chassis and load area, checking for corrosion around the suspension mounting points, sills, and wheel arches, as Transit vans often suffer from surface rust that may not yet constitute an MOT failure but worsens rapidly. Suspension bushes and coil springs require scrutiny for wear, given the van's commercial nature, while a road test should verify that the brake calipers are not binding and the transmission operates smoothly, as these components endure significant stress even when passing standard emissions and brake tests.
