2010 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · LS10 AAX

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of passing its MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 15 May 2025 at 98,359 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similar pattern from the previous two years, suggesting the vehicle is currently maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a 2010 model, averaging roughly 6,147 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, with 4,387 miles added between May 2022 and May 2023, and approximately 2,700 miles per year in the subsequent two cycles. This consistent usage pattern suggests the vehicle has avoided long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber components. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a sixteen year old commercial vehicle. While the records show a clean bill of health, the lack of mentions regarding corrosion or suspension wear is notable. A buyer should specifically inspect the chassis rails and sills for surface rust or structural corrosion, as these are common failure points for this era of Transit Connect that may not have been flagged if the vehicle was cleaned prior to testing. Physical inspection should focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and the depth of the tyre treads. Because the MOT history is exceptionally clean, it provides no data on when consumables like brake discs or coil springs were last replaced. Verifying service records for oil changes and timing belt intervals is essential to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean MOT record.
