2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · LF17 OML

The 2017 Ford Transit presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 31 January 2026 at 57,641 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior passes show no advisories or faults. The vehicle has avoided repeated failures or escalating mechanical issues across its recorded history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 6,400 miles, typical for a nine-year-old light commercial. The records show steady, low accumulation: 45,471 miles on 14 September 2022, 51,370 by 8 September 2023, 56,638 on 15 October 2024, and 57,641 at the January 2026 test. A failed test on 9 September 2022 at 45,471 miles preceded a pass five days later at identical mileage with no defects logged, suggesting a clerical or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than a substantive repair. The sparse, clean record implies the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current. Given the absence of flagged advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion, no recurring fault pattern emerges from the data. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of underbody integrity and brake component condition, as MOT passes with no defects do not capture wear below test thresholds. The low yearly use means prolonged standing periods are plausible, so check for perished rubber components and flat-spotted tyres before purchase.
