2019 Ford Transit Courier 1.0L Petrol · GY19 LPK

The 2019 Ford Transit Courier currently holds a valid MOT certificate dated 15 May 2026, passed at 52,353 miles. The maintenance trend over the past twelve months is broadly stable, though not without recurring minor faults. The most recent test initially failed on 15 May 2026 for an inoperative reversing lamp, both headlamp aims set too low, and a slightly distorted nearside rear road wheel. All four items were rectified the same day, resulting in a pass. The reversing lamp fault is a repeat of the defect recorded in both May 2025 tests, suggesting an intermittent or poorly resolved electrical issue rather than a one-off bulb failure. The headlamp aim defect is new for 2026 and may indicate disturbed headlamp adjusters or a minor impact event. The distorted rear wheel is a fresh advisory that warrants closer inspection for kerb damage or a bent rim. The vehicle has covered approximately 2,716 miles between the May 2025 test at 49,637 miles and the May 2026 test at 52,353 miles, which is low for a working van of this type. Annual mileage of roughly 7,500 miles across its seven-year life is typical for light commercial use, and the record shows no suspicious gaps or sudden accumulation. The MOT history is reasonably well documented with consecutive annual tests, giving a reliable picture of condition progression. The May 2025 failure record is the most technically revealing entry. Both front brake discs were flagged as worn, pitted, or scored, and the front inner brake pads were below 1.5 mm, indicating the braking system was genuinely due for replacement rather than merely borderline. All four tyres showed wear close to the legal limit or cracking and perishing, particularly on the inner edges, which points to sustained under-inflation or misalignment over time. A buyer should inspect the front brake discs and pads for remaining thickness, check tyre condition and inflation pressures, and examine the nearside rear wheel for any visible distortion or kerb damage. The repeated reversing lamp fault across three separate test attempts suggests a wiring, switch, or connector issue that may require more than a simple bulb replacement to resolve permanently.
