2014 Ford Transit Connect 1.6L Diesel · FN64 FBX

The 2014 Ford Transit Connect presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 June 2025 at 151,112 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 6 February 2024 at 139,060 miles confirms no outstanding advisories or mechanical faults across the available history. The record shows no recurring wear items or structural concerns flagged by testers. Recorded mileage stands at 151,112 against a 12-year service life, averaging roughly 12,593 miles per year which is high for this model age and points to sustained commercial-style use. The gap between the December 2022 test at 128,701 miles and the February 2024 pass at 139,060 miles covers only about 10,400 miles in just over 13 months, while the jump to 151,112 by June 2025 adds 12,052 miles in sixteen months. The two same-day fail then pass pairs on 28 December 2022 and 6 February 2024, both at identical mileages to their subsequent passes, suggest administrative or pre-test correction entries rather than genuine mechanical defects, as no faults were listed. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high annual mileage and age. The absence of corrosion or structural integrity advisories in the DVLA data does not exempt the van from underbody rust checks, particularly on sills and chassis rails exposed to winter salting. Drivetrain components such as the clutch and turbo should be assessed for wear consistent with 151,000 miles of load-bearing operation. The clean MOT sequence implies previous operators addressed consumables before each test, yet the sparse record leaves tyre condition, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions unverified between tests. Treat the van as mechanically sound on paper but subject it to a pre-purchase compression and leak-down check before commitment.
