2015 Ford Transit Courier 1.5L Diesel · GV64 OJO

The 2015 Ford Transit Courier presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, with its most recent MOT conducted on 17 February 2026 at 93,176 miles passing cleanly with zero defects. That result is particularly significant because it follows a pattern of minor advisories and one failure earlier in the vehicle's life, suggesting the previous owner addressed faults promptly rather than allowing them to accumulate. The February 2025 test flagged both a nearside front and offside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit, yet by the 2026 retest no tyre defects appeared, indicating fresh rubber was fitted in the interim. Similarly, the February 2024 failure for wiper washer faults and a headlamp aim issue was resolved before the retest the following day, and neither has recurred. This record reflects attentive, if not meticulous, upkeep. The vehicle has covered roughly 8,471 miles per year, which sits squarely within the typical range for an 11-year-old commercial van. Mileage accumulation has been steady rather than erratic, with no dramatic gaps or sudden spikes between test dates. The 2025 to 2026 interval added approximately 5,045 miles, consistent with the longer-term average. There is no evidence of prolonged standing or suspiciously low use that might mask underlying deterioration from inactivity. A prospective buyer should still inspect the front suspension components, particularly the lower arms and bushes, given the van's commercial duty cycle and 93,000 miles of service. The front tyre wear noted in 2025 suggests possible alignment or tracking issues that may have recurred since the clean 2026 test. Examine the inner edges of all tyres for uneven wear and check the brake discs and pads for lipping or uneven deposition, as stop-start commercial use accelerates brake wear. Underneath, look for corrosion on the chassis rails, outriggers, and around mounting points, as these vans often operate in varied conditions. The headlamp aim fault from 2024 warrants a quick check that both beams still pattern correctly, especially if the van has been loaded heavily or had suspension work since. Overall, the MOT record inspires reasonable confidence, but a physical inspection of the underside and a road test under braking remain essential before purchase.
