2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · FM16 EWZ

The 2016 Ford Transit presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 December 2025 at 104,395 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 10 January 2025 at 99,521 miles also showed a clean sheet. The vehicle carries no outstanding advisories or mechanical flags across its supplied history. Mileage sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old van. The record shows 94,669 miles on 4 January 2024, rising to 99,520 by 10 January 2025 and 104,395 by 11 December 2025. That equates to roughly 5,000 miles in 2024 and 4,875 over the following eleven months, well below the implied annual average of 10,440. The sparse but clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural care. The January 2024 and January 2025 entries each show an initial failure at 94,669 and 99,520 miles respectively, immediately followed by a pass at one mile higher on the same day with no defects listed. This pattern points to administrative or presentational issues at the testing station rather than a genuine mechanical defect. No tester flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of load-bearing structures and the front suspension, given Transit vans of this age commonly develop spring seat corrosion and worn ball joints unseen in a clean MOT. Verify the brake calipers are free and confirm the absence of underbody rust. The documented history offers no cause for concern, but a hands-on check remains prudent on any decade-old commercial vehicle.
