2019 Ford Tourneo Connect 1.5L Diesel · LG69 AHD

The vehicle presents a mixed maintenance history characterized by reactive repairs rather than proactive servicing. In the test on January 21, 2026, at 58,929 miles, the vehicle failed due to both the offside and nearside front tyres being below the 1.6mm threshold. This indicates a failure to monitor basic consumable wear prior to the inspection. However, the vehicle passed the following day with no further defects, suggesting the owner addressed the immediate safety concern quickly. At 58,929 miles over seven years, the Tourneo averages approximately 8,400 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a light commercial or family vehicle. The record from October 2024 at 42,801 miles reveals a more significant lapse in maintenance. The tester flagged multiple critical failures simultaneously, including both front and rear brake pads reaching the 1.5mm wear limit, alongside an ineffective windscreen wiper and an inoperative engine malfunction indicator light. The inoperative MIL is particularly concerning as it can mask ongoing engine faults or emissions issues that the tester cannot detect during the inspection. Between the 2024 failure and the 2025 pass, the vehicle covered over 3,600 miles without further recorded defects, suggesting the mechanical and electrical issues reported were rectified. Nevertheless, the recurring nature of failing on basic items like brakes and tyres suggests the previous owner only performed maintenance when an MOT-related failure is imminent. A buyer should verify the current state of the braking system and ensure the engine management system is functioning correctly, as the history shows a trend of neglecting these essential components until they reach a point of failure.
