2011 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · FP11 OKX

The 2011 Ford Transit Connect presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 2 July 2025 at 133,651 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the available record. The vehicle cleared every annual test from 2022 through 2025 without any advisories or defects, indicating no worsening mechanical condition over the observed period. A prior failure logged on 2 July 2025 at 133,649 miles is anomalous, as the tester recorded no defects; the vehicle passed later the same day, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a genuine fault. Annual mileage averages close to 8,900 miles against the vehicle's fifteen-year life, which is typical for a light commercial of this type. The records show steady accumulation: 118,755 miles in June 2022, 123,561 in July 2023, 128,401 in July 2024, and 133,651 by July 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear in the sequence, and the clean sheet across four consecutive tests implies the previous keeper kept basic servicing current. The sparse history offers little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. Given the absence of flagged corrosion, suspension wear, brake defects, or exhaust issues in the MOT data, a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity beneath the sills and chassis rails, as Transit Connect bodies are prone to hidden rust where the tester's ramp view is limited. Verify the condition of brake discs, calipers, and suspension bushes through road testing, since these items wear without always triggering advisories at test time. The duplicate 2 July 2025 entries warrant a check of the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm the failure reason was purely clerical.
