2017 Ford Tourneo Connect 1.5L Diesel · KM67 EET

The vehicle is currently roadworthy having passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 with 86,922 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a shift from proactive care to reactive repairs over the last two years. While the most recent test recorded no defects, the history from late 2024 indicates a failure to maintain safety-critical items, suggesting the previous owner only addressed mechanical issues once they reached the point of inspection failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 34,943 miles in November 2020 to 86,922 miles in late 2025. There was a notable period of usage involving 12,463 miles between November 2023 and December 2024, which correlates with the significant wear observed on the braking components and tyres that led to the November 2024 failure. A buyer must pay close attention to the braking system, as the record flags recurring thin pads and worn discs across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 cycles. The fact that discs were noted as worn in multiple tests suggests the braking system may be nearing the end of its effective life. Furthermore, the 2023 advisory regarding front tyres wearing on inner edges points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes, which should be inspected for uneven wear to prevent premature replacement of new rubber. The mechanical failure in November 2024 due to exposed cords and perishing rubber highlights a lack of basic consumable inspections. While the vehicle passed the subsequent test, a physical inspection should verify the current age and condition of all four tyres to ensure they have not suffered from dry rot. The structural integrity appears clear based on the history, but the recurring focus on wear-related components indicates the vehicle requires a diligent owner to maintain its safety standards.
