2009 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · LL09 FBA

The 2009 Ford Transit has a current roadworthiness status of passed, with its most recent MOT test conducted on 2025-08-06 at 185,386 miles. The maintenance trend appears to be stable, with no significant worsening of previously noted issues. However, the recent test did reveal worn but not excessively worn offside suspension arm pin or bush, and corroded front inner steps. The recorded mileage of 185,386 miles, accumulated over approximately 17 years, is roughly in line with the expected mileage for its age, suggesting moderate usage. There are no notable gaps or rapid mileage accumulation that would suggest inconsistent usage patterns. The mileage has been steadily increasing, with a rate of around 10,905 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's suspension and braking system closely, as recurring faults have been noted in the history. The offside suspension arm ball joint dust cover was severely deteriorated in 2023, and the front and rear brake discs have shown wear, with the rear brake disc failing a test in 2022 due to excessive wear. Additionally, the vehicle has a history of corroded chassis and brake pipes, which could indicate a more widespread issue with rust. The presence of grease or other material on the corroded brake pipe in 2023 is also a cause for concern. It is essential to inspect the vehicle's structural integrity, including the sills and wheel arches, as these have also shown signs of corrosion. Given the history of brake disc wear and the presence of corrosion on the chassis and brake pipes, it is crucial to inspect the vehicle's braking system and assess its overall condition. The buyer should also inspect the suspension system, paying particular attention to the offside suspension arm and ball joint. Furthermore, the vehicle's exhaust emissions should be checked, as the engine MIL was inoperative in 2022, indicating a potential malfunction.
