2018 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · GIA 10

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 15 May 2025 at 89,848 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This streak of clean passes across the last five tests indicates a stable maintenance trend and suggests the previous owners proactively addressed mechanical issues before they resulted in failures or structural degradation. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a commercial vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,200 miles per year. Between the March 2021 test at 41,135 miles and the May 2025 test at 89,848 miles, the vehicle covered 48,713 miles, showing a steady usage pattern rather than erratic bursts of heavy mileage. The jump of 12,072 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests reflects a typical annual workload, which generally helps in maintaining even wear across the drivetrain and suspension components. While the digital record shows no recurring mechanical faults or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should still focus on common wear points for a Transit Connect nearing the 90,000-mile mark. The buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and control arm joints, as these often show signs of fatigue at this mileage. Given the lack of recorded advisories, look closely at the brake discs for signs of uneven wear and check the exhaust system for emerging surface rust that has not yet reached the threshold of an MOT advisory.
