2008 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · FX08 NFG

The most recent MOT on 28 June 2025 at 142,464 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating the vehicle is presently roadworthy. The pattern from the last three recorded tests shows a stable maintenance trend, with no deterioration evident. Across 18 years the odometer reads 142,464 miles, averaging roughly 7,900 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a commercial van of this age. The mileage rose by only 816 miles between the 29 June 2024 test and the 28 June 2025 test, suggesting limited recent use. A two‑year interval between the April 2022 test and the June 2024 test leaves a gap in recorded data, but the lack of recorded defects before and after that period implies no major issues were reported. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the suspension components, inspecting bushings and coil springs for wear or corrosion, as these parts are prone to fatigue on high‑mileage vans. Brake discs and pads merit visual and tactile assessment to confirm they have not been compromised despite the clean MOT record. Tyre tread depth and uniformity should be measured, given the modest mileage increase may mask uneven wear. An inspection of the chassis for rust, especially around wheel arches and underbody, remains prudent, as structural corrosion can develop silently. The exhaust system should be examined for cracks or excessive corrosion, and all fluid levels checked for leaks. Confirming that the vehicle’s service history aligns with the MOT entries will provide further confidence in its ongoing reliability.
