2009 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · K4 NEO

The vehicle presents a stable and roadworthy profile, evidenced by a clean passing record across the last five annual tests. The most recent inspection in April 2026 at 36,685 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a consistent level of maintenance. This trend of perfect passes suggests that the vehicle has been looked after without the recurring mechanical failures typically seen in vans of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old Transit, averaging approximately 2,158 miles per year. Between February 2022 and April 2026, the vehicle covered only 11,586 miles, showing a pattern of infrequent use. While this low mileage limits wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests—often spanning only 2,000 to 3,000 miles—suggest the vehicle may spend significant periods sitting stationary, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluids regardless of mechanical mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage storage and age. While the MOT record shows no structural issues, the tester must check the chassis for corrosion, particularly in the sills and wheel arches, where moisture often settles on stationary vehicles. Inspect the brake calipers for seizing or pitting due to inactivity and examine the suspension bushes and sidewalls for cracking or perish rot. Given the age, the tyres should be checked for age as rubber dries out even if the tread depth remains sufficient.
