2015 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · HN15 FZM

The vehicle currently holds a passing record for the current date, but the maintenance history indicates a clear deterioration trend that has not been corrected. The most recent test on 2025-07-08 passed at 118,382 miles, yet subsequent tests in 2024, 2023, and 2022 were all conducted at significantly lower mileage levels, demonstrating a consistent lack of upkeep. This pattern suggests that basic upkeep was skipped for approximately four years, with the gaps widening by roughly 10,000 miles each year. The gap between the 2025 test and the 2022 test is particularly notable, as the car has not had any formal MOTs taken for over four years, placing it at risk of structural failure if no corrective action is taken immediately. The mileage accumulation is substantial, averaging roughly 10,000 miles per year. While the average is typical for a 2015 vehicle, the rapid increase over a four-year span indicates that the car was driven at high speeds or on long distances without any maintenance intervention. This rapid wear is not uniform; while the engine and suspension components remain within acceptable limits, specific components such as brake discs, wheel bearings, and suspension bushes are being worn at rates that would require inspection. The lack of a full MOT in the last four years means that the car has not been tested for the most recent potential structural damage, making it difficult to assess the current state of suspension and braking systems. Given the recurring faults and the lack of recent official validation, a buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to check for structural integrity in the suspension and brakes, as well as to verify the condition of the wheels and tyres. The history shows significant wear on brake discs and wheel bearings, which are critical components that can fail suddenly. Additionally, the rear tyres are worn close to legal limits, and the front lower suspension bushings are worn, indicating that the vehicle may have been subjected to high stress on these parts. A thorough inspection is required to rule out corrosion, rust, or cracks that could have developed since the last MOT, as the car has not been tested for the most recent potential damage.
