2010 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · GU60 KTV

The vehicle artwork holds a roadworthy status following a clean MOT pass on 29 January 2025 at 112,813 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful retests. The vehicle failed its inspections in both 2024 and 2025 within days of the initial appointment, yet passed shortly after rectification. This suggests that minor defects or failing consumable items are being addressed upon discovery by the owner, rather than indicating a deep-seated mechanical failure. At 16 years old, the recorded mileage of 112,813 miles represents an average usage of approximately 7,050 miles per year. This is consistent with a light-duty commercial vehicle of this era. The data shows steady accumulation, with 13,094 miles covered between the January 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 9,163 miles covered between January 2024 and January 2025. The drop in annual mileage in the final year suggests the drivetrain and suspension components have not been subjected to extreme stress recently, though the age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of aged rubber components and fluid degradation. Because the MOT history shows no specific advisories or recurring mechanical faults, a buyer must conduct a physical inspection focusing on common failure points for the Ford Transit. Prioritize checking the chassis rails, wheel arches, and leaf spring mounts for structural corrosion, which often affects older vans despite low mileage. Given the recent retests, verify the state of the braking system, tyre condition, and suspension bushes to ensure the issues addressed prior to the passes were not merely light bulbs or minor adjustments but signs of a neglected maintenance schedule.
