2019 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · LE19 AEJ

The vehicle presents a generally sound roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted in April 2026 at 67,089 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle currently meets all legal standards. This follows a consistent history of passes over the previous three years, despite a singular failure in June 2025 which was rectified quickly within one week to achieve a successful re-test. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a seven-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per annum. Between July 2023 at 42,258 miles and June 2024 at 53,170 miles, the van covered over 10,000 miles, showing regular usage. The more recent interval of 4,562 miles between the June 2025 and April 2026 tests suggests the vehicle has been used sparingly recently rather than sitting excessively, which is beneficial for maintaining seals, fuel system components, and brake assemblies. While the record is clean of recurring advisories, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the components most prone to wear on a Transit Connect of this age. Focus on the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or cracking, as these often degrade before triggering an MOT failure. Given the brief failure in 2025, verify that the component which caused the re-test was properly replaced and that no secondary fluid leaks are present in the braking system. Inspect the chassis for early-stage corrosion to ensure the structural integrity remains robust, as surface rust often begins in hidden sills and mounting members.
