2017 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · HN17 OMV

This Ford Transit Connect maintains a stable and exemplary roadworthiness trend. The most recent MOT on 25 March 2026 at 117,969 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2022, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard despite its heavy usage. The mileage is high for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 13,108 miles per year. The accumulation has been steady and rapid, increasing by 12,674 miles between March 2025 and March 2026, and 14,041 miles between March 2024 and March 2025. Such consistent high-mileage usage typically indicates a vehicle used for commercial purposes, which often means regular servicing to avoid downtime. The absence of any advisories over the last five years is unusual for a high-mileage Transit and suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. No recurring issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion appear in the data. The record shows no evidence of the common neglect often seen in commercial fleets, such as repeated failures for tyre tread or wiper blades. A physical inspection should focus on long-term wear items that MOT testers might overlook if they are within legal limits but nearing the end of their life. Check the condition of the clutch and the smoothness of the gearbox given the 117,969 miles on the clock. Inspect the underside for any early signs of surface corrosion and check the service history to confirm that oil changes and timing belt intervals align with the high annual mileage.
