2021 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · KX71 CCY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent inspection. Although the MOT test on September 5, 2025, at 10,649 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, the record shows a simultaneous failure on that same day. This lack of specific defect data suggests either an administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the retest, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a five-year-old Transit, averaging approximately 2,130 miles per year. Between the August 2024 test at 9,059 miles and the September 2025 test, the vehicle covered only 1,590 miles over thirteen months. This data indicates the van has likely spent long periods stationary or used for very light duties. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often leads to the degradation of rubber seals and corrosion on brake surfaces due to inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-use cycles. Check the brake discs for surface pitting and calipers for seizing, as infrequent use prevents the pads from cleaning the rotors. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracks or dry rot, which can occur over time regardless of mileage. Additionally, verify the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking, as the rubber can perish on vehicles that sit for extended periods.
