2021 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · HV71 SYR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive prevention. The most recent test in September 2025 at 51,976 miles shows the vehicle passing without mechanical failures, despite minor cosmetic damage to a mirror and a cut on the nearside rear tyre. Compared to the 2024 record, the number of flagged advisories has decreased, suggesting the immediate issues regarding lighting and tyres were addressed. At 51,976 miles over five years, the Transit averages approximately 10,400 miles per annum. This mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this age. The vehicle covered 6,727 miles between the August 2024 and September 2025 tests, indicating a consistent level of operation over the last twelve months. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing which generally helps preserve engine seals and rubber components. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the braking and suspension systems during a viewing. The 2024 test flagged thin offside rear brake pads and front tyres worn to the edges near the legal limit, which suggests potential alignment issues or uneven wear patterns. While the 2025 test did not repeat these specifically, the buyer must verify the remaining pad thickness and check for uneven wear on the discs. The previous history of broken indicators and damaged mirrors also points to minor impact damage, which should be checked for any structural stress in the bodywork.
