2021 Ford Transit 350 Trend Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · LC21 WHT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, though the MOT history reveals a pattern of immediate rectification following failures. The most recent test on 15 May 2025 at 69,249 miles passed with no defects recorded, successfully resolving a failure just eight days prior at 69,242 miles. This suggests the previous owner is proactive in addressing compliance issues once identified by testers, although the recurring failures indicate the vehicle frequently operates on the edge of its legal requirements between test intervals. At 69,249 miles over five years, this Ford Transit has averaged approximately 13,850 miles per annum. This usage profile is consistent with a commercial vehicle and suggests regular use of heavy-duty drivetrain and suspension components. The interval between the April 2024 test at 56,654 miles and the May 2025 test shows an accumulation of 12,595 miles in thirteen months. This steady mileage growth indicates consistent wear on consumables rather than long periods of stagnation which might lead to seized components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components that triggered the failures in April 2024 and April 2025. While the record does not specify the exact fault codes, the proximity of the failures to the passes often points to items such as lighting, exhaust emissions, or minor mechanical adjustments. Given the high mileage and commercial nature of the Transit, a thorough check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake caliper wear is essential. Checking the structural integrity of the chassis and crossmembers for corrosion is also vital, as high-mileage vans are frequently subjected to environmental factors that accelerate metal degradation over time.
