2022 Ford Transit Connect 230 Trend Eblu 1.5L Diesel · GL22 ABO

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT test on 24 July 2025. At 97,665 miles, the tester passed the vehicle with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the primary mechanical and safety-critical components met the required DVSA standards without failure at the time of the test. The mileage accumulation is significantly high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 24,400 miles per annum. This high rate of use suggests heavy commercial application or long-distance commuting, which typically accelerates the wear on drivetrain components and suspension hardware. While the 2025 test shows no immediate failures, the rapid mileage growth means that the vehicle is approaching the end of many major service cycles much faster than a typical private motor car. A buyer should prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the areas most affected by high-mileage transit. Particular attention must be paid to the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs for signs of perished rubber or fatigue, as these frequently fail under heavy loads. The braking system should also be checked for uneven disc wear or binding calipers, given the high mileage. Because the MOT record is sparse and only covers a recent period, a visual check of the chassis for structural corrosion is essential to ensure that the heavy usage has not compromised the integrity of the frame.
