2014 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · KV64 AAF

The 2022‑10‑10 MOT at 241,312 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA roadworthiness standard. Although earlier tests in 2021 and 2022 documented numerous failures, the consecutive passes in late 2021 and 2022 suggest that previous deficiencies have been corrected and the maintenance trend is improving rather than deteriorating. The mileage trajectory shows a 2014 model accumulating roughly 20,000 miles per year, with a notable jump from 210,639 miles in November 2020 to 233,489 miles in November 2021, an increase of 22,850 miles in a single year. From 2017 to 2018 the mileage rose by 48,045 miles, and from 2018 to 2019 only 5,990 miles were added, reflecting irregular usage. A buyer should therefore examine the condition of the suspension bushes and ball joints, which have repeatedly shown wear on the front lower arms and rear suspension components, as well as the integrity of the brake pipes, which have been flagged for excessive corrosion on both near‑side and off‑side fronts and rears across multiple tests. The presence of missing wheel fixings, worn tyres close to the legal limit, and a leaking power steering pipe also warrants close inspection, as these items can compromise safety and may indicate deferred maintenance despite the recent clean test. The recent MOT confirms current roadworthiness, but the history of recurring brake pipe corrosion, suspension wear and tyre degradation suggests that a thorough physical inspection is essential before purchase.
