2010 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · FT60 AAE

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following a period of mechanical inconsistency. In the most recent test conducted on 19 February 2024 at 192,195 miles, the Transit passed with no recorded defects. This follows a clean result in February 2023, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed and the vehicle has maintained a standard of compliance over the last two years. The mileage profile shows consistent high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 12,000 miles per year over its 16-year life. Between February 2022 and February 2023, the vehicle covered 3,026 miles, while the subsequent year saw a much larger jump of 2,137 miles. This steady rate of accumulation suggests the vehicle was used regularly for work or transit tasks rather than sitting, which generally keeps the drivetrain and seals lubricated but the total mileage of nearly 200,000 miles places significant stress on age-related structural components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, as the failures in February 2022 and 2023 indicate that the vehicle previously struggled to meet minimum standards. Given the high mileage and age, a thorough check for corrosion on the members and floor pans is essential, alongside an inspection of suspension bushes and coil springs. While the most recent tests are clean, the cumulative wear means that components like brake calipers and shock absorbers are likely nearing the end of their functional life.
